Riverview has played every game this season on their home field, but they'll have to hit the road on Friday. They will head out to square off against the Flat Rock Rams at 7:00 p.m. After the two teams made easy work of their previous opponents, one won't be so lucky on Friday.
Last Friday, Riverview blew past Huron, posting a 51-21 win at home. Given the Pirates' advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan football rankings (they are ranked 80th, while the Chiefs are ranked 238th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Flat Rock put another one in the bag on Friday to keep their perfect season alive. They blew past Jefferson 66-29 on the road. The contest was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Rams had established a 24 point advantage.
Flat Rock's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but Ben Scully led the charge by rushing for 144 yards on only 15 carries. The dominant performance gave Scully a new career-high in rushing yards. Another passer making a difference was Graham Junge, who threw for 61 yards and three touchdowns.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Flat Rock was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 294 rushing yards. That's the most rushing yards they've managed all season.
Riverview's victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 4-0. As for Flat Rock, their record is now 4-0.
Riverview skirted past Flat Rock 36-34 in their previous meeting back in September of 2023. The rematch might be a little tougher for Riverview since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
