The MacArthur Generals will look to take advantage of their home-field for the first time this season as they take on the Springfield Senators at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both are sauntering into the matchup backed by comfortable wins in their prior games.
MacArthur is coming home in high spirits after they had to open their season on the road against Mattoon. MacArthur blew past Mattoon, posting a 47-6 win on the road.
Meanwhile, Springfield took care of business in their home opener on Saturday (and then some). They claimed a resounding 44-12 victory over Champaign Central at home.
MacArthur didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Springfield in their previous meeting back in September of 2022, but they still walked away with a 34-28 win. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Springfield's Paul Hartman, Iii, who rushed for 80 yards and a touchdown on only six carries, and also threw for 112 yards and two touchdowns. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for MacArthur to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
