Pearl River have been homebodies their last two matches, but they are heading out on Friday. They will take on Franklinton at 7:00 PM. Pearl River are expected to win -- but not by much -- so they will need to come into the contest prepared for a fight.
Pearl River entered their matchup against Lakeshore last Friday without any home losses -- but there a first time for everything. Pearl River ended up on the wrong side of a painful 14-45 walloping at Lakeshore hands. Pearl River were down by 7-38 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Meanwhile, after a disappointing seven points in their last game, Franklinton made sure to put some points up on the board against Salmen. Franklinton blew past Salmen 36-8. That looming 28-point mark stands out as the most commanding margin for Franklinton yet.
Franklinton's win lifted them to 4-5 while Pearl River's defeat dropped them down to 6-2. Junior Jasper Lasalle will be someone to keep an eye on after he rushed for 66 yards and 2 touchdowns on 4 carries last week. Let see if he can build on that strong performance or if Pearl River's defense can bottle him up.
