After each having a week off, the Alcester-Hudson Cubs and the St. Mary Cardinals will shake off the rust and duke it out at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Last Friday, Alcester-Hudson was fully in charge, breezing past Gayville-Volin 41-6. The win continues a trend for the Cubs in their matchups with the Raiders: they've now won four in a row.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask St. Mary). They blew past Iroquois/Lake Preston, posting a 78-24 victory. The Cardinals might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won five games by 48 points or more this season.
St. Mary's win bumped their record up to 6-0. As for Alcester-Hudson, their victory bumped their record up to 5-1.
Alcester-Hudson didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against St. Mary in their previous matchup back in October of 2024, but they still walked away with a 28-22 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Cubs since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
