The Smithson Valley Rangers will head out to take on the Vela Sabercats at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Smithson Valley comes in on six and Vela on 11.
Smithson Valley is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Friday. They simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat South San Antonio 49-7. Given the Rangers' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 115th, while the Bobcats are ranked 603rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Vela). They claimed a resounding 58-27 victory over Harlingen South. The Sabercats might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won seven matches by 26 points or more this season.
It was another big night for Jonathan Flores, who rushed for 252 yards and two touchdowns on only 12 carries, and also caught a touchdown. Flores is crushing it when it comes to rushing yards: he's rushed for at least 101 every time he's taken the field this season. Geoffrey Creighton Lefevre had a good game as well, finishing with 260 passing yards and two touchdowns in total.
Smithson Valley's win was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 9-2. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 47.6 points per game. As for Vela, their victory bumped their record up to 11-0.
