Houston will take on Water Valley in the third round of the playoffs at 7:00 PM on Friday. The teams both have allowed few points on average (Houston 15.75, Water Valley 10.85), so any points scored will be well earned.
Houston might be getting used to good results now that the squad has 11 wins in a row. Last week, they narrowly escaped with a win as the squad sidled past Palmer 14-12. Senior Jalen May, who rushed for 97 yards and 2 touchdowns on 20 carries, was a major factor in Houston's success. That makes it ten straight good games in a row from May.
Meanwhile, Water Valley earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing last Friday. They blew past Booneville 41-14. The lopsided score is just par for the course this season for Water Valley, who can brag about ten blowout wins.
Their wins bumped Water Valley to 11-2 and Houston to 11-1. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
