The Lamar Silver Foxes will challenge the Central Eagles at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Central took a loss in their last game and will be looking to turn the tables on Lamar, who comes in off a win.
Last Friday, everything came up roses for Lamar at home against Green Sea Floyds as the team secured a 58-14 victory. The contest was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 39-0.
Lamar's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Zori Pierce led the charge by throwing for 130 yards and four touchdowns while completing 87.5% of his passes, and also rushing for 59 yards and a touchdown. Zoom Jackson was Pierce's top target, picking up 81 receiving yards and three touchdowns.
Meanwhile, Central couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They lost 20-0 to Lewisville two weeks ago.
Lamar came up short against Central in their previous meeting back in August of 2019, falling 33-20. Can Lamar avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
