The Liberty Leopards will venture away from home to challenge the Girard Indians at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Liberty is leaving town to face Girard after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. Liberty fell just short of John F. Kennedy Catholic by a score of 22-19 on Thursday.
Meanwhile, Girard had to kick off their season on the road on Friday, but they showed no ill effects. They blew past Jefferson Area 56-25 on the road. Given the Indians' advantage in MaxPreps' Ohio football rankings (they are ranked 184th, while the Falcons are ranked 584th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Girard's win was the result of several impressive offensive performances. One of the most notable came from Dominick Tolone, who rushed for 61 yards on only seven carries, and also threw for 120 yards while completing 100% of his passes. Sam Scott made the highlight reel by snagging an interception and taking it all the way to the house.
Liberty was dealt a bruising 49-7 loss at the hands of Girard in their previous meeting back in August of 2023. Can Liberty avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
