Eureka have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. They and Excel Christian go head to head on Saturday at 4:00 PM in their first playoff game of the year. Eureka are coming into the contest hot, having won seven in a row.
Excel Christian scored well below their previous average of 36.38 points per game two weeks ago, but luckily it didn't cost them. They were gifted an easy victory as Pyramid Lake wound up forfeiting 0-2. The tight race was right in line with the MaxPreps state rankings' forecast.
Meanwhile, Eureka put the finishing touches on their 7th blowout victory of the season. They were fully in charge, breezing past Owyhee 48-0. That looming 48-point mark stands out as the most commanding margin for Eureka yet.
Their wins bumped Eureka to 8-1 and Excel Christian to 4-5. Two forfeits in a row aren't very likely, so Excel Christian better be ready for a battle.
