East St. John is leaving town to face Hammond after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. East St. John came up short against St. James last Friday, falling 20-0. East St. John just can't catch a break and has now endured five losses in a row dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Hammond didn't have too much trouble with Amite at home on Friday as they won 33-16.
Zalen Bennett was nothing short of spectacular: he rushed for 166 yards and two touchdowns on only 15 carries.
Another reason for the win was Hammond's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for eight sacks. The heavy lifting was done by Damarcus Servick and Darius Servick who racked up five sacks between them. Darius is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last 12 games he's played dating back to last season.
