Two dominant signal callers in Eli Ericson and Bryson Edgar are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Mammoth Huskies will venture away from home to square off against the Chadwick Dolphins at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. Each of these teams will be battling to keep a four-game winning streak alive.
Last Friday, Mammoth took their matchup with ease, bagging a 48-6 win over Lone Pine. Given the Huskies' advantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 15th, while the Golden Eagles are ranked 67th) , the win wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, a well-balanced attack led Chadwick over Polytechnic in every quarter on their way to victory on Saturday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Dolphins blew the Panthers out of the water with a 50-6 final score. That 44 point margin sets a new team best for the Dolphins this season.

One of the most notable was Malik Sims, who picked up 60 receiving yards and one score, and also punched in one TD on the ground. He showed off some serious burst, lighting up the secondary with a catch for 60 yards. Another player making a difference was Will Hutter, who rushed for 66 yards and one touchdown.
