Ponderosa might have lost, but man, De'Alcapon Veazy was a machine: he rushed for 66 yards and two touchdowns.
Meanwhile, Falcon had to suffer through a 40-6 loss at the hands of Farmington.

Ponderosa was able to grind out a solid victory over Falcon when the teams last played back in October of 2015, winning 42-32. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Falcon's Ty Murphy, who rushed for 123 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 152 yards and two touchdowns while completing 76.5% of his passes. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Ponderosa to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
