Lebanon is hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 33.56 points per game. They will take on Tazewell at 7 p.m. ET on Friday. Tazewell will be strutting in after a win while the Pioneers will be stumbling in from a defeat.
We expected the Pioneers to have trouble with the significantly higher-ranked Richlands last week, and they did. Lebanon has to be aching after a bruising 28-7 loss to Richlands. The matchup was a 7-7 toss-up at halftime, but Lebanon was outplayed the rest of the way.
Meanwhile, Tazewell took their game against Grundy by a conclusive 42-18 score. Tazewell's Gavin Nunley was one of the most active players for the team as he rushed for 101 yards and three TDs on 25 carries.
Everything went Lebanon's way against the Bulldogs when the two teams last met in November of last year as they made off with a 35-12 victory. Will the Pioneers repeat their success, or do the Bulldogs have a better game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
