The Pepperell Dragons will head out on the road to challenge the Chattooga Indians at 12:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Neither Pepperell nor Chattooga posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Pepperell saw some tournament action last Friday. They might have been a little too into the holiday spirit, gifting Darlington an easy 44-24 win. The Dragons haven't had much luck with the Tigers recently, as the team's come up short the last eight times they've met.

The victory made it two in a row for Chattooga and bumps their season record up to 10-2. As for Pepperell, their defeat dropped their record down to 4-9.
Things could have been worse for Pepperell, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 57-41 loss to Chattooga when the teams last played back in November. Can Pepperell avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
