It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact Hennessey can now relate to. They received a blow on Friday as they fell 48-34 to the Davis Wolves. The result was an unpleasant reminder to the Eagles of the 40-27 loss they experienced in the pair's previous head-to-head fixture back in November of 2017.
Hennessey's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Gunnar Holder, who rushed for 95 yards and two touchdowns, and Kevin Trillo, who picked up 96 receiving yards and three touchdowns. Holder is becoming a predictor of Hennessey's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is 4-2 (and 2-3 when he doesn't). Hennessey also got help from Hagen Copeland, who showed off his sure hands for 86 receiving yards.
Hennessey's loss dropped their record down to 6-5. As for Davis, their win was their third straight at home, which pushed their record up to 7-4.
Hennessey does not have any more games scheduled as of now. As for Davis, they will square off against Adair on Friday. Adair will roll in looking for their 12th straight victory, something Davis surely won't give up without a fight.
