Raytown have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. Playoff time is here, and they and Belton are set to clash on Friday . Raytown know how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with flashy point totals in its past seven matchups -- so hopefully Belton like a good challenge.
Raytown brought a six-game winning streak into their match against North Kansas City two weeks ago; they left with a seven-game streak. Raytown dodged a bullet, finishing off North Kansas City 35-34. The tight race was right in line with the MaxPreps state rankings' forecast.
As for Belton, they had a rough outing against Chrisman, but a little bit of home cooking seems to have fixed things right up. Everything went Belton way against Ruskin last Friday as they made off with a 54-28 win. This was a playoff matchup, so the win was all the more important for Belton (and all the more bitter for Ruskin).
Their wins bumped Belton to 3-7 and Raytown to 8-1. Given their high-scoring efforts against their previous opponents, it will be interesting to see how far up these teams can run up the score.
