The Westminster Wildcats will head out on the road to face off against the Kell Longhorns at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Westminster is coming into the contest on a five-game losing streak.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 46-14, which was the final score in Westminster's tilt against Cambridge on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Wildcats can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Georgia football rankings (they are ranked 185th, while the Bears are ranked 32nd).
Meanwhile, Kell never let their opponents score on Friday. They came out on top in a nail-biter against Blessed Trinity, sneaking past 3-0. Those three points were actually the fewest the Longhorns have put up all season, but given the result they're probably not too concerned.
One reason for the win was Kell's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for three sacks. The team can thank three different players for their defensive prowess: Collin Davis, Omarr Luke, and Alex Jean, who each picked up one sack apiece. Davis was another major factor on D, picking up a sack and making ten total tackles (4.0 for loss).
The victory made it two in a row for Kell and bumps their season record up to 5-2. Those wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered a grand total of 0 points in those games. As for Westminster, their defeat dropped their record down to 2-5.
Westminster came out on top in a nail-biter against Kell in their previous meeting back in October of 2024, sneaking past 16-14. One of the biggest obstacles the team faced in that game was the Longhorns' Kaleb Narcisse, who threw for 203 yards and two touchdowns. Now that he's got a second chance to win this matchup, will the Wildcats still be able to contain Narcisse? There's only one way to find out.
