College Park is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Vacaville just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Monday. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (19-13), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time.

They won a matchup that couldn't have been any closer, slipping by Foothill 33-32. Granada's victory was all the more impressive since the Falcons were averaging only 15 points allowed on the season.
Granada's defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged two passes before it was all said and done. The picks came courtesy of Scarlett Massengale and Marin Lnenicka.
College Park's loss ended a five-game streak of away wins and brought them to 10-2. As for Granada, the win (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 8-2.
Everything came up roses for College Park against Granada in their previous matchup back in September, as the squad secured a 41-8 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for College Park since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
