The Tazewell Bulldogs will venture away from home to take on the Lebanon Pioneers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither Tazewell nor Lebanon posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Tazewell's offense might be in the hot seat on Friday considering what happened against Graham on Thursday. They were dealt a 59-0 loss at the hands of the G-Men. While losing is never fun, the Bulldogs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Virginia football rankings (they are ranked 269th, while the G-Men are ranked 73rd).
Meanwhile, Lebanon was not able to break out of their rough patch on Monday as the team picked up their third straight defeat. They were beaten by Virginia High 42-6. The matchup marked the Pioneers' lowest-scoring contest so far this season.
Lebanon suffered their first home loss, dropping their record down to 6-3. As for Tazewell, their defeat dropped their record down to 2-7.
Tazewell won a game that couldn't have been any closer when the teams last played back in November of 2024, slipping by Lebanon 62-61. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Bulldogs since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
