The Johnston Dragons will be playing at home against the Ankeny Centennial Jaguars on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Johnston had to skate by with only a one-point margin when they last took the field, which might have inspired the 37-point drubbing they dealt Roosevelt on Friday. The Dragons never let the Roughriders get on the board and left with a 37-0 victory. Given the Dragons' advantage in MaxPreps' Iowa football rankings (they are ranked seventh, while the Roughriders are ranked 174th) , the win wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Ankeny Centennial). They simply couldn't be stopped on Friday as they easily beat Sioux City North 49-7. Considering the Jaguars have won four games by more than 24 points this season, Friday's blowout was nothing new.
Ankeny Centennial now has a winning record of 5-4. As for Johnston, their record is now 7-2.
Johnston beat Ankeny Centennial 14-7 in their previous meeting back in September of 2020. Do the Dragons have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Jaguars turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
