After each having a week off, the Searcy Lions and the White Hall Bulldogs will shake off the cobwebs and face off against one another at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Searcy will be strutting in after a victory while White Hall will be coming in after a loss.
Searcy will head into Friday's game on the come-up: they were handed a 20-point defeat in their previous outing, but they didn't let that bad energy affect their game against Harrison two weeks ago. Searcy narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past Harrison 35-32.
Searcy's defense was in the mix too, especially the secondary: they snagged four passes before it was all said and done. Derrick Young led the group effort, picking up two of those interceptions all by himself. William Gaines is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last three games he's played dating back to last season. Searcy got some further help from Michael Lincoln: he picked up a sack and made 16 total tackles.
Meanwhile, White Hall was not able to break out of their rough patch two weeks ago as the team picked up their third straight loss. They lost 34-12 to Morrilton. While losing is never fun, the Bulldogs can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Arkansas football rankings (they are ranked 106th, while the Devil Dogs are ranked 23rd).
