Decatur Lutheran/Decatur Christian will look to defend their home turf on Friday against Martinsville at 7:00 PM. Martinsville will need to watch out since Decatur Lutheran/Decatur Christian have now posted big point totals in their last three contests.
If Decatur Lutheran/Decatur Christian were riding high off their 42-21 takedown of Sangamon Valley/Tri-City two weeks ago, that ride came to an abrupt end. Last Friday, Decatur Lutheran/Decatur Christian and Arcola were almost perfectly matched up, but Decatur Lutheran/Decatur Christian suffered an agonizing 36-37 defeat. Things were expected to be close, but in this case the state rankings mixed up the winning team.
Meanwhile, things haven't been easy for Martinsville, and their matchup last Friday only extended their streak of losses to seven. They took a serious blow against Georgetown-Ridge Farm, falling 6-44.
With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better outcome in this one. We'll see which team satisfies their hunger and which team leaves with an empty stomach.
