Highland are packing up and hiking across state lines for their game on Friday. They will challenge Pekin on the road at 7:00 PM. Highland don't have the home-field advantage, but they do enjoy an advantage in the MaxPreps rankings.
It was all tied up at halftime, but Highland weren't quite B-G-M's equal in the second half when they met last Friday. Highland took a 22-31 hit to the loss column at the hands of B-G-M. Highland's loss signaled the end of their four-game winning streak.
Meanwhile, Pekin have had to suffer through a 3-game losing streak, but that streak is no more. They took the contest and then some with a 55-14 victory over Canton. The matchup was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 35-8.
Pekin's win lifted them to 2-3 while Highland's defeat dropped them down to 4-1. We'll see if Pekin's success rolls on or if Highland are able to steal their positive momentum.
