Given their disadvantage in the MaxPreps national rankings, Mandarin should expect quite the challenge on Friday. They will go up against Wekiva in continuing playoff action. The stakes are high as the two teams are all in, each fighting to extend its postseason success.
Mandarin earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing last Friday. They blew past Winter Park 41-8. Junior Carson Beck was the offensive standout of the match for Mandarin, as he passed for 269 yards and 3 touchdowns. Beck has now scored at least one touchdown in the past nine games.
Meanwhile, Wekiva can now show off seven landslide victories after their most recent match. Everything went their way against Apopka as they made off with a 28-7 win. Winning may never get old, but Wekiva sure are getting used to it with seven in a row now.
Their wins bumped Mandarin to 8-4 and Wekiva to 11-1. With both Mandarin and Wekiva swaggering in after impressive performances, it will be interesting to see which team steps up to teach the other some humility.
