The Lassiter Trojans will challenge the Northview Titans at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Things were looking good for Lassiter after they put the first points on the board on Friday, but unfortunately for them things went downhill from there. They and Alexander were almost perfectly matched up, but Lassiter suffered a 15-14 defeat.
Despite the loss, Lassiter saw an underclassman step up: Joseph Grice picked up two sacks and made seven total tackles (2.0 for loss).
