After starting their season with two straight games on the road, Rolling Hills Prep is finally coming home. They will look to take advantage of their home-field as they take on the Sherman Oaks CES Knights at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Both are strolling into their matches after big wins in their previous games.
Rolling Hills Prep will roll into the game after a wild two-game stretch: they only put up 12 points two weeks ago, then bounced right back against Vista Meridian on Saturday. Rolling Hills Prep blew past Vista Meridian 56-28 on the road.
Meanwhile, Sherman Oaks CES came into Friday's contest having lost three straight, but that streak is now in the rearview. They took their matchup at home on Friday with ease, bagging a 40-13 victory over Lighthouse Christian.
Daniel Troung was nothing short of spectacular: he rushed for 200 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries. His longest rush was for an impressive 58 yards, which helps to explain his lofty yards per carry total.
Sherman Oaks CES'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 Liam Clinger and Fudail Burns. Clinger also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making a tackle and defending three passes in addition to snagging an interception. Jacob Ashikian was another major factor on D, making 14 total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Rolling Hills Prep came up short against Sherman Oaks CES in their previous matchup back in September of 2017, falling 48-35. Thankfully for Rolling Hills Prep, Jordan Lenhart (who rushed for 187 yards while picking up 8.9 yards per carry) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result?
