Given their disadvantage in the MaxPreps state rankings, North Central should expect quite the challenge on Friday. Abbeville will go up against North Central in continuing playoff action. The stakes are high as the teams both are all in, each fighting to extend its postseason success.
Last week, Abbeville put the finishing touches on their eighth blowout victory of the season. They were fully in charge, breezing past Andrew Jackson 54-13. The win was familiar territory for Abbeville, who now have ten in a row.
Meanwhile, after a disappointing zero points in their last game, North Central made sure to put some points up on the board against St. Joseph's Catholic. North Central had enough points to win and then some against St. Joseph's Catholic, taking their matchup 41-21. This was a playoff game, so the win was all the more important for North Central (and all the more bitter for St. Joseph's Catholic).
Their wins bumped North Central to 8-3 and Abbeville to 10-0. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
