The Pearl River Rebels will challenge the Chalmette Owls at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
Last Friday, Pearl River came up short against Pine and fell 28-20. The Rebels haven't had much luck with the Raiders recently, as the team's come up short the last three times they've met.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Chalmette). They blew past Booker T. Washington, posting a 36-6 win at home. The high-flying offensive performance was a huge turnaround for the Owls considering their nine-point performance the game before.
Jaden Williams was his usual excellent self, picking up 51 receiving yards and two touchdowns, while also punching in a touchdown on the ground.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Chalmette was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 201 rushing yards. That's the most rushing yards they've posted since back in November of 2023.
Chalmette's defense stepped up as well, laying out the QB three times. Leading the way was Eric Anderson with two sacks. He is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season.
Pearl River now has a losing record at 1-2. As for Chalmette, their victory was their seventh straight at home dating back to last season, which pushed their record up to 4-1.
