On Friday East Hickman County will take on Houston County at 7:00 PM. Both of these teams will be looking for a pick-me-up after considerable defeats in their previous games.
Things haven't been easy for East Hickman County, and their match last Friday only extended their streak of losses to eight. They were dealt a punishing 7-49 defeat at the hands of Waverly Central. Despite the defeat, East Hickman County saw an underclassman step up: Freshman Kyle England picked up 92 yards on the ground and accumulated 113 passing yards. If you haven't heard England's name lately, then you haven't been paying much attention: he has loomed large in their past three games.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 0-49, which was the final score in Houston County's tilt against Riverside last Friday. This makes it the second loss in a row for Houston County.
With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better outcome in this one. Neither squad could put together much of an offensive attack, so expect every point to count.
