On Friday Early will have to hit the road after three straight games at home. They will venture away from home to challenge the Comanche Indians at 7:00 p.m. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Early is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. The game between them and Peaster wasn't particularly close, with Early falling 50-36. While losing is never fun, the Longhorns can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 844th, while the Greyhounds are ranked 401st).
Early wouldn't let Peaster keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Early can thank Mario Vasquez and Rhett Williams for forcing both of them. Vasquez is also on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made seven or more in the last four games he's played dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, after soaring to 36 points the game before, Comanche was a bit more limited in their contest on Friday. They fell 14-7 to Tolar.
Early's defeat was their fifth straight at home dating back to last season, which dropped their record down to 1-3. As for Comanche, their loss ended a four-game streak of away wins dating back to last season and brought them to 2-2.
