The Chouteau-Mazie Wildcats will be defending their home-field for the first time this season they go up against the Gore Pirates at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Chouteau-Mazie is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after opening their season on the road. They lost 49-26 to Kansas on Friday. The defeat continues a trend for the Wildcats in their matchups with the Comets: they've now lost four in a row.
Meanwhile, Gore was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Friday as they fell 27-22 to Keys.
Chouteau-Mazie didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against Gore in their previous meeting back in October of 2015, but they still walked away with a 22-18 victory. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Gore's Tommy Smith, who rushed for 158 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.2 yards per carry. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Chouteau-Mazie to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
