After two weeks on the road, Central Catholic is heading back home. They and Lexington go head to head on Friday at 7:00 PM in their first playoff matchup of the year. Central Catholic have bulldozed their previous three opponents, so Lexington might have their hands full.
Last Friday, Central Catholic put the finishing touches on their 4th blowout victory of the season. They took their match against Haverhill by a conclusive 34-0 score. The margin was wide but not a surprise since Central Catholic are ranked far ahead of Haverhill in the MaxPreps state rankings.
Meanwhile, Lexington brought a three-game winning streak into their game against Woburn Memorial last Friday; they left with a four-game streak. Lexington blew past Woburn Memorial 32-7. That looming 25-point mark stands out as the most commanding margin for Lexington yet.
Their wins lifted both teams to an identical 5-2. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
