The Knight Hawks will head out to challenge the Heritage Patriots at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither Knight nor Heritage posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Knight is leaving town to face Heritage after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Knight had to suffer through a 55-0 loss at the hands of San Marcos. While losing is never fun, the Hawks can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 853rd, while the Royals are ranked 416th).
Meanwhile, Heritage was beaten by La Quinta 42-8 on Thursday. The Patriots were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 28-0.
Knight beat Heritage 18-7 in their previous meeting back in August of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Knight since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
