If Smethport was feeling good fresh off their 53-28 takedown of Bucktail last Friday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Hubbers took a 28-22 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Kane Wolves on Saturday. Unfortunately, that's the second time they've come up short against the Wolves this season, as they also lost their prior matchup 34-8 back in August.

Coming up, Smethport will be playing in front of their home fans against Coudersport at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Hubbers will be up against the Falcons' rather soft defense (which has allowed 29.17 points per contest), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance. As for Kane, they are taking a road trip to take on Union/Allegheny-Clarion Valley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Union/Allegheny-Clarion Valley's defense has only allowed 10.5 points per game this season, so Kane's offense will have their work cut out for them.
