The Granby Comets are taking a road trip to face off against the Norcom Greyhounds at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. 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.
Granby came into their game two weeks ago off a hard-fought close win, but unfortunately suffered a serious change of fortune. They were outmatched by Norfolk Academy and fell 49-7. While losing is never fun, the Comets can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Virginia football rankings (they are ranked 182nd, while the Bulldogs are ranked 33rd).
Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Norcom beat Norview 12-8 on Friday. The Greyhounds haven't had any issues with the Pilots recently, as the game was their fourth consecutive victory against them.
Norcom's win bumped their record up to 3-5. As for Granby, they dropped their record down to 2-6 with the defeat, which was their sixth straight on the road dating back to last season.
Granby won a matchup that couldn't have been any closer in their previous meeting back in October of 2024, slipping by Norcom 7-6. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Comets since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
