The Jackson Ironman/Ironladies are taking a road trip to face off against the Chillicothe Cavaliers at 9:30 p.m. on Thursday. Jackson will be strutting in after a win while Chillicothe will be coming in after a defeat.
While Ironman/Ironladies fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They claimed a resounding 42-7 victory over Logan on the road. Given the Ironman/Ironladies' advantage in MaxPreps' Ohio football rankings (they are ranked 111th, while the Chieftains are ranked 415th), the result on Friday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Chillicothe couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They had to suffer through a 38-0 loss at the hands of Bloom-Carroll. The loss leaves the Cavaliers without a win on the season.
Everything came up roses for Jackson against Chillicothe in their previous matchup back in October of 2023 as the squad secured a 48-7 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Jackson since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
