Laurel looks to establish their home field advantage on Friday as they take on St. Elizabeth at Laurel HS at 7:30 PM. Laurel are expected to win -- but not by much -- so they will need to come into the contest prepared for a fight.
Laurel won the last time they faced Brandywine, and things went their way last week, too. Laurel put the hurt on Brandywine with a sharp 50-20 victory. 50 seems to be a good number for Laurel as the squad scooped up a win with the same point total in their previous match.
Meanwhile, St. Elizabeth had to kick off their season on the road, but they showed no ill effects. They walked away with a 20-10 win.
Their wins bumped Laurel to 2-0 and St. Elizabeth to 1-0. In their victory, Laurel relied heavily on senior Jamir Townsend, who rushed for 174 yards and 3 touchdowns; a key strategy for St. Elizabeth will lie in finding a way to minimize his impact.
