The Shelby Golden Lions are headed away from home for the first time to face off against the Crest Chargers at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Hopefully Shelby focused on turnovers this week as team gave up four on Saturday.
Last Saturday, Shelby took a blow against A.C. Reynolds, falling 51-21. The Golden Lions haven't had much luck with the Rockets recently, as the team's come up short the last two times they've met.
Although Shelby took the loss, they still got scores from Khalil Foster, Lan Farmer, and Tyler Morgan.
Even if they lost, Shelby's defensive line still kept up the pressure with three sacks. Tyjai Johnson was especially locked on to A.C. Reynolds' QB and sacked him twice. Johnson also put in work on the defensive side of the ball, picking up two sacks and making eight total tackles (3.0 for loss).
Meanwhile, Crest took care of business in their home opener on Monday. They secured a 32-27 W over Burns.
Things could have been worse for Shelby, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 53-38 loss to Crest in their previous meeting back in September of 2023. Thankfully for Shelby, Ny?Tavious Huskey (who threw for 411 yards and six touchdowns while completing 78.3% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
