The Gautier Gators will square off against the D'Iberville Warriors at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
While Gators fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 26-23 win over Harrison Central on Friday.
Meanwhile, D'Iberville took their match on the road on Friday with ease, bagging a 51-15 victory over Columbia.
This one was won in the trenches and the lion's share of the credit has to go to Jayquan Havard and he. Havard rushed for 155 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries while he rushed for 155 yards and a touchdown on only 15 carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 58 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total. The team also got some help courtesy of Andre Crosby, who gained 154 total yards and two touchdowns.
Everything went Gautier's way against D'Iberville in their previous meeting back in September of 2023 as Gautier made off with a 41-20 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Gautier since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
