The Eastern Vikings will head out on the road to face off against the Vineland Fighting Clan at 6:00 p.m. on Thursday. The matchup should be an exciting one, as these teams are ranked near one another in New Jersey (Eastern is ranked 152nd, while Vineland is ranked 139th).
After soaring to 40 points the game before, Eastern were a bit more limited in their matchup on Friday. They were beaten by Timber Creek Regional 41-6.
Meanwhile, the third road match was the charm for Vineland, as they earned their first road win of the season. They didn't even let Pennsauken onto the board and left with a 3-0 win on Friday.
Timber Creek Regional's win bumped their season record to 8-0 while Eastern's defeat dropped theirs to 2-7.
Eastern and Vineland were neck-and-neck in their previous meeting back in October of 2022, but Eastern came up empty-handed after a 20-19 defeat. Can Eastern avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
