The Cushing Bearkats are taking a road trip to take on the Deweyville Pirates at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
While Bearkats fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They really took it to Colmesneil for the full four quarters, racking up a 55-0 victory on the road. The Bearkats pushed the score to 49-0 by the end of the third, a deficit the Bulldogs had no chance of recovering from.
Meanwhile, Deweyville gave their fans exactly what they wanted out of a home opener on Friday. They came out on top against Christian Home Educators Fellowship by a score of 27-20. The win was all the more spectacular given the Pirates' disadvantage in MaxPreps' football rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 683rd in Texas, while the Patriots are ranked 210th in Louisiana).
Cushing came up short against Deweyville when the teams last played back in September of 2023, falling 44-38. Thankfully for Cushing, Elijah Curl (who rushed for 187 yards and three touchdowns) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result?
