The Virginia Academy Patriots will head out to take on the Life Christian Academy Eagles at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Having both just faced considerable losses, both teams are looking to turn things around.
Virginia Academy can't be to happy about their upcoming road match considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They were beaten by Calvert Hall 48-18. While losing is never fun, the Patriots can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' football rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 216th in Virginia, while the Cardinals are ranked 17th in Maryland).
Despite the defeat, Virginia Academy had strong showings from Bryan Resto, who threw for 286 yards and two touchdowns, and Domingo Meade, who picked up 197 receiving yards. Meade was no stranger to the big play, cutting upfield for a catch that went for 62 yards.
Meanwhile, Life Christian Academy couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They took a blow against St. Michael the Archangel on Friday, falling 47-0.
