Walkertown has won four straight games at home (dating back to last season), while Wheatmore has won four straight on the road, but those streaks won't matter much on Friday. The Wolfpack will welcome the Warriors at 7:00 p.m.
Wheatmore's offense is going to have their work cut out for them on Friday: Walkertown hadn't allowed a single point the last three times they've hit the field. The Wolfpack simply couldn't be stopped two weeks ago as they easily beat Morehead 34-0. The final result isn't all that surprising considering the Wolfpack's considerable advantage in MaxPreps' North Carolina football rankings (they are ranked 101st, while the Panthers are ranked 361st).
