Carver have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. They will look to defend their home turf on Friday against Jackson at 8:00 PM. It might come down to the wire as the MaxPreps state rankings project a close contest.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 0-41, which was the final score in Carver's tilt against Stockbridge two weeks ago. Carver got a solid performance out of Tony Jones, who ; unfortunately, it just wasn't enough for the win.
Meanwhile, Jackson ran circles around KIPP Atlanta Collegiate last week, and the extra yardage (560 yards vs. 41.2 yards) paid off. Everything went Jackson's way against KIPP Atlanta Collegiate as the squad secured a 42-0 victory. The matchup was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 21-0.
Jackson's win lifted them to 2-1 while Carver's defeat dropped them down to 0-3. In their win, Jackson relied heavily on sophomore Raveon Moore, who passed for 187 yards and 2 touchdowns; a key strategy for Carver will lie in finding a way to minimize his impact.
