For the first time this season, Hayfork will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup. They will challenge the Burney Raiders at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. One thing working in Hayfork's favor is that they have posted at least 31 points every time they've taken the field this season.
Hayfork is headed into the matchup after thoroughly thrashing Chester: they outscored them in every quarter. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Timberjacks blew the Volcanoes out of the water with a 56-0 final score. The Timberjacks have beaten the Volcanoes the last five times they've met, but they better watch out: this was the closest the Volcanoes has come to flipping the script.
