Atkins is hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 38.8 points per game. They have the luxury of staying at home another week and will welcome Walkertown at 7:30 p.m. ET on Friday. The Camels are limping into the game on an eight-game losing streak.
Atkins played a matchup they are hoping to forget as they lost a 62-27 blowout to North Surry last week. Atkins' loss came about despite a quality game from Jacob Torres, who passed for 249 yards and three TDs.
Atkins' defense was a presence as well, and it made life painful for the QB and got past North Surry's offensive line for a total of four sacks. The heavy lifting was done by Jaden Ingram and Jalen Matthews, who each racked up two sacks.
Meanwhile, Walkertown didn't have too much breathing room in their contest with Surry Central, but they still walked away with a 20-14 win.
Atkins suffered a grim 49-19 defeat to Walkertown when the two teams last met in October of last year. Maybe Atkins will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back on MaxPreps for all the details.
