Given their disadvantage in the MaxPreps state rankings, Connellsville should expect quite the challenge on Friday. They take on Penn-Trafford at 7:30 PM. With the two teams each stumbling in off of a defeat, both will be hungry for the win.
There's no need to mince words: Connellsville lost to McKeesport last Friday, and they lost bad. The score wound up at 14-57. Connellsville got a solid performance out of senior Dave Marchewka, who rushed for 77 yards and 1 touchdown; unfortunately, it just wasn't enough for the victory.
Meanwhile, the match between Penn-Trafford and Gateway was not a total blowout, but with Penn-Trafford falling 7-27, it was darn close.
With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better outcome in this one. Find out which team's record gets a tune-up and which team falls into a funk by watching the game and checking back on MaxPreps for the full scoop.
