The Tahoka Bulldogs are taking a road trip to take on the Eldorado Eagles at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Eldorado is hoping to do what Smyer couldn't on Friday: put an end to Tahoka's winning streak, which now stands at four games. Tahoka simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat Smyer 48-16.
It was another big night for Jordan Hicks, who rushed for 140 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries. Those 140 rushing yards gave him a new career-high.
Tahoka didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. The picks came courtesy of Ruben Arguello and Cayden Gutierrez.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Eldorado). They claimed a resounding 66-6 victory over McCamey. The high-scoring effort was just what the Eagles needed considering they were shutout in their previous contest.
Eldorado's win on Friday was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Jonnierae Adame, who threw for 114 yards and two touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. Jasi Galindo was another key player, rushing for 64 yards and two touchdowns on only eight carries.
Eldorado was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 246 rushing yards. That's a new trend for them: they were averaging 69 rushing yards per game earlier this season, but in their last five games they've averaged 159.4.
Eldorado wouldn't let McCamey keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Eldorado can thank Braedon Criswell and Eleazar Hernandez for forcing both of them.
Eldorado's win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 5-5. Those good results were due in large part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 13.0 points per game. As for Tahoka, their record is now 8-2.
