The Edison Tigers will hit the road for the first time this season to challenge the Clovis Cougars at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Edison can't be to happy about their upcoming road matchup considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They were beaten by Bakersfield 54-0. While losing is never fun, the Tigers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 442nd, while the Drillers are ranked 206th).
Meanwhile, Clovis gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. They strolled past Central Valley Christian with points to spare, taking the game 27-12.
Maddox Merrill was a one-man wrecking crew for Clovis as he picked up 105 receiving yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 89 yards and a touchdown. Deagan Rose also helped out by tossing the rock for 265 yards.
Edison might still be hurting after the 28-6 defeat they got from Clovis in their previous meeting back in November of 2015. Can Edison avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
