If the MaxPreps state rankings hold true, the near future looks bright for Northern. They will challenge Northwood on the road at 7:00 PM on Friday. Northern is currently enjoying a nine-game winning streak and is looking to extend their dominance.
Three stomps in nine total games is nothing to scoff at, and that exactly where Northern stand after their most recent matchup last Monday. They took the contest and then some with a 76-7 win over East Chapel Hill. Senior Brycen Jackson was the offensive standout of the match for Northern, as he passed for 124 yards and 3 touchdowns. If you haven't heard Jackson's name lately, then you haven't been paying much attention: he has loomed large in their past nine games.
Meanwhile, Northwood have been struggling to pick up a victory, with their match against Hillside making it three winless games in a row. It was a game Northwood are hoping to forget as they lost a 7-57 blowout to Hillside.
Northern's victory lifted them to 9-0 while Northwood's loss dropped them down to 4-5. Northwood's offensive line will need to gear up for a tough test against a Northern defensive front that amassed five sacks against East Chapel Hill, so we'll see if they are up to the task.
