St. Mary's South Side has enjoyed a three-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They will face off against the Central Tigers on Friday.
St. Mary's South Side is probably headed into the game with a chip on their shoulder considering Rock Bridge just ended the team's four-game winning streak last Friday. They fell 20-12 to the Bruins. Having soared to a lofty 37 points in the game before, the Dragons couldn't push the score so high this time.
Meanwhile, it can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Central had no problem doing just that on Friday. They took their contest with ease, bagging a 53-6 victory over the Panthers. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Missouri football rankings (they are ranked 93rd, while the Panthers are ranked 280th), the win wasn't entirely unexpected.
St. Mary's South Side better keep an eye on Ayden McGuire. He was instrumental in Central's win, throwing for 104 yards and a pair of TDs on perfect 7-for-7 passing.
