Friend may have come out ahead in its last game, but it shouldn't get too cocky given who is up next. It takes on Sacred Heart this Thursday at 7:00 PM. With five blowout victories so far this season, Friend is a real threat.
Friend didn't have too many spare points last week in its contest with Parkview Christian, but it was still a 34 - 28 win. Junior running back Kolby Houlden was a big part of the win as his strong performance led the charge (he ran for 177 yards and punched in two touchdowns).
Meanwhile, the final score between Sacred Heart and Sterling last week was a 61 - 8 blowout in Sacred Heart's favor. Sacred Heart is ranked 159th in the nation (many places ahead of Sterling), so the decisive victory wasn't entirely unexpected.
Their wins bumped Friend and Sacred Heart up to an identical 7-1. While both teams are coming off of wins, only one will triumph this week. We'll find out soon enough who that will be.
