Memphis Nighthawks have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. On Friday they take on Macon Road Baptist at 7:00 PM. Neither Memphis Nighthawks nor Macon Road Baptist could muster much offensive firepower in their last games, so look to the defense to decide this one.
If Memphis Nighthawks were riding high off their 58-19 takedown of Rossville Christian Academy three weeks ago, that ride came to an abrupt end. Memphis Nighthawks took a serious blow against Lighthouse Christian two weeks ago, falling 0-64. Memphis Nighthawks were in a tough position by the half, with the score sitting at 0-42.
Meanwhile, after soaring to 42 points the game before, Macon Road Baptist faltered in their game last Friday. Last Friday, they lost to Lee Academy by a decisive 7-22 margin. Macon Road Baptist were down by 0-22 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Memphis Nighthawks didn't have too many spare points in their contest with Macon Road Baptist the last time the two teams met, but they still walked away with a 12-6 win. Memphis Nighthawks' win shoved Macon Road Baptist out of the playoffs, so expect the team will have a target on their back in this one.
