The St. Cloud Bulldogs will head out to face off against the Harmony Longhorns at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Last Friday, St. Cloud was able to grind out a solid victory over Tohopekaliga, taking the game 31-24. The win made it back-to-back victories for the Bulldogs.
A big part of St. Cloud's win came down to the chemistry between Logan King and his top target Alexander Springs. King threw for 324 yards and three touchdowns while Springs picked up 184 receiving yards and three touchdowns. St. Cloud is 2-1 when Springs posts two or more receiving touchdowns, but 2-3 otherwise.
St. Cloud didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off three passes before the game was over. It was truly a group effort as Springs, Bryce Anthony Oraine Williams, and Jaden Taylor picked up one apiece. Taylor has been hot recently, having also posted five or more total tackles the last three times he's played.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Harmony). They strolled past Celebration with points to spare on Saturday, taking the game 21-2. The victory was some much needed relief for the Longhorns as it spelled an end to their three-game losing streak.
St. Cloud's win ended a three-game drought at home and bumped them up to 4-4. As for Harmony, their victory ended an eight-game drought on the road dating back to last season and puts them at 2-6.
St. Cloud took their win against Harmony in their previous matchup back in November of 2023 by a conclusive 21-0. The rematch might be a little tougher for St. Cloud since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
