Given their disadvantage in the MaxPreps state rankings, Plain Dealing should expect quite the challenge on Friday. They are packing up and heading on the road for the first time this season. They face off against Northwood at 7:00 PM. Given their recent losses, both teams have a little extra motivation heading into this weekend.
After a dominant victory in their contest two weeks ago, Plain Dealing were humbled last Friday. They came up short against Bolton, falling 6-14.
Meanwhile, Northwood took their match against Richwood by a conclusive 38-8 score. With Northwood ahead 31-0 at the half, the match was all but over already.
Northwood's win lifted them to 2-0 while Plain Dealing's loss dropped them down to 1-1. In their win, Northwood relied heavily on sophomore Terrence Cook, who rushed for 83 yards and 1 touchdown; a key strategy for Plain Dealing will lie in finding a way to minimize his impact.
