The Meek Tigers will venture away from home to challenge the Hackleburg Panthers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Last Friday, Meek took a blow against Winston County, falling 36-6. The Tigers haven't had much luck with the Yellowjackets recently, as the team's come up short the last three times they've met.
Meanwhile, Hackleburg gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. They were the clear victor by a 33-13 margin over Lynn. The score at the end of the third wound up being the final score as the Panthers just coasted through the last quarter.
Hackleburg's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Blaise Vickery, who threw for 232 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 11.6 yards per attempt, and also rushed for 50 yards. Jaquan Reeder was another key signal caller, gaining 169 total yards and two touchdowns.
Meek lost to Hackleburg on the road by a decisive 24-8 margin when the teams last played back in September of 2023. Can Meek avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
