The Sneads Pirates will be playing at home against the Seminole County Indians at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
After dropping their season opener at home, Seminole County is headed out to face a Pirates squad ready to give their home crowd a win. Sneads fell just short of Cottondale by a score of 24-21 on Friday.
Despite their loss, Sneads saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Pious Reed, who rushed for 112 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries, was perhaps the best of all.
Sneads wouldn't let Cottondale keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Sneads can thank Troy Mathews and Aaron Williams for forcing both of them. Sneads got some further help from Justin Street: he made nine total tackles and defended three passes.
Even though they lost, Sneads was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 251 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now rushed for at least 157 rushing yards in seven consecutive matches dating back to last season.
Meanwhile, Seminole County didn't have too much trouble with Chattahoochee County at home on Friday as they won 27-13. Given the Indians' advantage in MaxPreps' Georgia football rankings (they are ranked 143rd, while the Panthers are ranked 431st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Seminole County didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. In fact, those interceptions all came courtesy of defensive juggernaut Nei?Ko Edwards.
