Bellows Free Academy will challenge Rutland on the road at 7:00 PM on Friday. Bellows Free Academy are the favorites in this one -- although they were the favorites in their last match, too, so the odds might count for a little less.

If Bellows Free Academy were riding high off their 37-6 takedown of Champlain Valley Union two weeks ago, that ride came to an abrupt end. Bellows Free Academy fell to Mt. Mansfield 21-30.

Meanwhile, Rutland made easy work of Champlain Valley Union last Friday and carried off a 34-12 victory. The success made it back-to-back wins for Rutland.

Rutland's win lifted them to 2-0 while Bellows Free Academy's loss dropped them down to 1-1. These are two of the top teams in the state, so whatever the outcome when they meet, this is not one you'll want to miss.
