Salem has enjoyed a two-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They will take on The Londonderry Lancers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The matchup should be an exciting one, as these teams are ranked near one another in New Hampshire (Salem is ranked ninth, while Londonderry is ranked third).
Last Friday, Salem came up short against Pinkerton and fell 28-20.
Meanwhile, Londonderry had already won three in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 22 points), and they went ahead and made it four on Friday. They didn't even let Alvirne onto the board and left with a 40-0 win. The result was nothing new for Londonderry, who have now won six contests by 24 points or more so far this season.
Pinkerton's victory bumped their season record to 8-0 while Salem's defeat dropped theirs to 5-2.
Salem was dealt a bruising 41-7 defeat at the hands of Londonderry when the teams last played back in October of 2022. Can Salem avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
