Claremore Christian have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. Union Christian Academy and Claremore Christian go head to head on Friday at 7:00 PM in their first playoff game of the year. The MaxPreps state rankings favor Claremore Christian, but they won't be able to rely on this superior ranking alone to carry them to victory.
It never fun to lose, and it even less fun to lose 14-60, which was the final score in Union Christian Academy's tilt against Destiny Christian last week. Union Christian Academy got a solid performance out of senior Caleb Peach, who rushed for 61 yards and 2 touchdowns on 6 carries; unfortunately, it just wasn't enough for the win. That makes it three straight good games in a row from Peach.
Meanwhile, five stomps in eight total games is nothing to scoff at, and that exactly where Claremore Christian stand after their most recent match two weeks ago. They steamrollered Life Christian 54-6. That looming 48-point mark stands out as the most commanding margin for Claremore Christian yet.
Claremore Christian's victory lifted them to 5-3 while Union Christian Academy's loss dropped them down to 3-5. We'll find out if Claremore Christian can add another positive mark to their record or if Union Christian Academy can shake off the defeat and take the spring out of Claremore Christian's step.
