Hayfield has gone 6-1 against Annandale recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Friday. The Hayfield Hawks are taking a road trip to face off against the Annandale Atoms at 7:00 p.m. Hayfield will be strutting in after a win while Annandale will be coming in after a loss.
While Hawks 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 Thursday's season opener. They blew past West Springfield 48-7 on the road two weeks ago. The score at the end of the third wound up being the final score as the Hawks just coasted through the last quarter.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 46-3, which was the final score in Annandale's tilt against Washington-Liberty on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Atoms can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Virginia football rankings (they are ranked 308th, while the Generals are ranked 69th).
Everything came up roses for Hayfield against Annandale in their previous meeting back in September of 2023 as the team secured a 50-0 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Hayfield since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
