The Central Mountain Wildcats will venture away from home to take on the Bloomsburg Panthers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither Central Mountain nor Bloomsburg posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Central Mountain is leaving town to face Bloomsburg after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Central Mountain had to suffer through a 42-6 loss at the hands of Mifflin County. The loss continues a trend for the Wildcats in their matchups with the Huskies: they've now lost three in a row.
Meanwhile, Bloomsburg was beaten by Danville 45-7 on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Panthers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 457th, while the Ironmen are ranked 49th).
Bloomsburg's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Jharee Moore-Stewart, who gained 108 total yards and a touchdown, and Krue Wheadon, who picked up 60 receiving yards.
Everything came up roses for Central Mountain against Bloomsburg in their previous meeting back in September of 2023 as the team secured a 48-13 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Central Mountain since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
