Russell will challenge Big Sky on the road at 7:00 PM on Friday. It might come down to the wire as the MaxPreps state rankings project a close matchup.
It was all tied up at the half for Russell and Glacier last week, but Russell stepped up in the second half. Russell were able to grind out a solid victory over Glacier, winning 9-0.
Meanwhile, Big Sky have to be hurting after a devastating 34-56 loss at the hands of Sentinel. Big Sky were down by 27-49 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Russell's win lifted them to 1-1 while Big Sky's defeat dropped them down to 0-2. We'll find out if Russell can add another positive mark to their record or if Big Sky can shake off the defeat and take the spring out of Russell's step.
