Baptist Hill will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Latta at 7:30 p.m. on November 16th. Both teams are headed into the matchup with plenty of momentum (Latta has won three straight at home, while Baptist Hill won three straight on the road), something that'll have to change. Cross also won't see the field for a while: their next contest is against Green Sea Floyds at 7:30 p.m. on November 15th. Cross knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 31 points or more in their past six matches -- so hopefully Green Sea Floyds likes a good challenge.
