The Antelope Titans are taking a road trip to take on the Cordova Lancers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Antelope has given up an average of 33.2 points per game this season, but Friday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.
Antelope is coming in off a wild two-game stretch: after soaring to 32 points last Friday, they were much more limited against West Park on Friday. They had to suffer through a 42-7 loss at the hands of the Panthers. While losing is never fun, the Titans can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 494th, while the Panthers are ranked 202nd).
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Cordova). They came out on top in a nail-biter against McClatchy on Friday, sneaking past 34-32. The victory made it back-to-back wins for the Lancers.
Antelope better keep an eye on Trey Wallace. He was instrumental in Cordova's win, rushing for 161 yards and four touchdowns on only 14 carries, while also throwing for 132 yards on eight of 16 attempts. Those four rushing touchdowns gave Wallace a new career-high.
Cordova was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 294 rushing yards. That's the most rushing yards they've managed all season.
On the defensive side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Cordova's defensive line and their five sacks. In that department, Savion Thomas was the leader with two.
Antelope's defeat dropped their record down to 1-5. As for Cordova, the victory got them back to even at 3-3.
Antelope strolled past Cordova in their previous matchup back in October of 2024 by a score of 31-14. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Titans since the team won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
