The Rancho Verde Mustangs are headed away from home for the first time to take on the Great Oak Wolfpack at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Having both just faced considerable losses, both teams are looking to turn things around.
Rancho Verde is leaving town to face Great Oak after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Rancho Verde came up short against Corona del Mar on Friday, falling 21-0. While losing is never fun, the Mustangs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 160th, while the Sea Kings are ranked 49th).
Meanwhile, Great Oak had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They lost 38-14 to Vista Murrieta on Friday. The Wolfpack have struggled against the Broncos recently, as their match on Friday was their seventh consecutive lost matchup.
Although Great Oak took the loss, they still got scores from Mikey Vazquez and Cris Scott.
Rancho Verde beat Great Oak 37-27 in their previous matchup back in September of 2015. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Great Oak's Demetric Felton, who rushed for 153 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 9.6 yards per carry. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Rancho Verde to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
