The Casteel Colts are taking a road trip to square off against the Higley Knights at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.
Casteel is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering O'Connor just ended the team's three-game winning streak on Thursday. They fell 6-0 to the Eagles.
