On Friday Wythe will take on Bland-Rocky Gap at 7:00 PM. Wythe don't have the home-field advantage, but they do enjoy an advantage in the MaxPreps rankings.
Wythe might have drawn first blood against Galax last Friday, but it was Galax who got the last laugh. Wythe came up short against Galax, falling 14-21.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 8-47, which was the final score in Bland-Rocky Gap's tilt against Auburn. The state rankings had actually given Bland-Rocky Gap a slight edge heading into the game, making this hurt that much more.
Wythe took their contest against Bland-Rocky Gap the last time the two teams met by a conclusive 55-21 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for Wythe since the team won't have home-field advantage. Watch the game and check back on MaxPreps to see if the change in venue makes a difference.
