Riddle (0-3) will have its first chance of the season to defend its home turf as it faces off against Elgin (2-1) on Friday at 7:00 PM. Both teams have had struggles on the defensive side of the ball, with Riddle giving up an average of 51.33 points per game and Elgin allowing an average of 36.67.
Riddle has to be hurting after a devastating 46 - 18 defeat at the hands of Days Creek last game. The game was close at halftime with a score of 18 - 16, but Riddle simply couldn't keep up in the second half. Meanwhile, Elgin dominated last week, steamrollering Pine Eagle 68 - 30.
The last time they met,, the final might easily have been mistaken for a basketball score. Elgin was the clear winner with a 72 - 48 finish. This time, their match is expected to be much closer since they have similar state rankings (Riddle at 187th, Elgin at 159th). Will Riddle avenge its loss? We'll find out soon enough.
