In their previous meeting, Rome routed Villa Rica 49 - 7. This time around? Just more of the same. Rome dominated last week, steamrollering Villa Rica 45 - 7. The margin wasn't a surprise since Rome is ranked many positions ahead of Villa Rica in the state.
The Villa Rica defense couldn't hold their ground and gave up 42 points in the first half. That left it at a 42 - 0 disadvantage. Even though the defense held Rome to three points in the second half, the team still couldn't find a way to get out on top.
The win was just another feather in the cap for the still undefeated Rome, who sits at 8-0. The loss dropped Villa Rica's record to 4-5. It is on an unfortunate four-game losing streak.
Both teams are aiming to improve upon those records in their upcoming games. Rome will face off against East Paulding Friday at 7:30 PM. Rome has blown out its past seven opponents, so East Paulding has its work cut out for it. Meanwhile, Villa Rica will battle it out against Cass on Friday at 7:30 PM.
