The Carter Cowboys will head out to challenge the Panther Creek Panthers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Carter is leaving town to face Panther Creek after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Carter took a 28-20 hit to the loss column at the hands of Van on Friday.
Meanwhile, Panther Creek had to kick off their season on the road on Friday, but they showed no ill effects. They claimed a resounding 55-10 win over Lake Worth on the road. Given the Panthers' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 91st, while the Bullfrogs are ranked 732nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Graylyn Fry was nothing short of spectacular: he threw for 409 yards and five touchdowns while completing 82.4% of his passes, and also rushed for 38 yards and a touchdown. Jalen Lott was Fry's top target, picking up 170 receiving yards and two touchdowns.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Panther Creek was moving up and down the field and finished the game with 503 total yards. That's the most total yards they've posted since back in August of 2023.
Carter suffered a grim 48-27 defeat to Panther Creek when the teams last played back in October of 2023. Can Carter avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
