The Halls Red Devils will challenge the Powell Panthers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams are coming into the match red-hot, with Halls sitting on three straight wins and Powell on four.
Last Thursday, Halls didn't have too much trouble with Carter at home as they won 35-19. The Red Devils pushed the score to 35-6 by the end of the third, a deficit the Green Hornets cut but never quite recovered from.
The critical scores for Halls came from Drew Ross, Landon Vest, Nathan Martin, Noah Partin, and Partin. Amari Lethgo was another key player, throwing for 268 yards and three touchdowns.
On the defensive side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Halls' defense and their four sacks. Carter's QB won't forget Dom Culp anytime soon given he sacked him three times. Culp is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last six games he's played dating back to last season. Halls got some further help from Hunter Toney: he picked up a sack and made six total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Meanwhile, you're bound to get a positive result if you outscore your opponent every quarter, and that's exactly how it played out for Powell on Friday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that they blew Clinton out of the water with a 48-8 final score. That looming 48-8 mark stands out as the most commanding margin for the Panthers yet this season.
Halls' victory bumped their record up to 4-1. As for Powell, their win bumped their record up to an identical 4-1.
Halls ended up a good deal behind Powell in their previous matchup back in September of 2023, losing 34-17. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Powell's Deuce Rodgers, who rushed for 227 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 13.4 yards per carry. Now that Halls knows the damage he can cause, will they be able to stop him this time? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
