The Lakewood Gators will head out to challenge the Westwood Redhawks at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.
Lakewood can't be to happy about their upcoming road matchup considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They were dealt a 48-0 defeat at the hands of Sumter. While losing is never fun, the Gators can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' South Carolina football rankings (they are ranked 168th, while the Gamecocks are ranked 30th).
Meanwhile, Westwood couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They were outmatched by A.C. Flora at home and fell 42-6. The loss leaves the Redhawks without a win on the season.
