As Friday night lights shine across the region, cities like York, Lancaster, and Chester are buzzing with excitement. This week’s lineup is packed with teams looking to turn their fortunes around, while others will try to maintain their winning momentum. It’s all set to be a thrilling night of high school football!
First up, we have the Allendale-Fairfax Tigers traveling to face the Great Falls Red Devils. Both teams are struggling this season, holding records of 0-2, and desperately seeking a much-needed victory. The visiting Tigers haven’t managed to score this season, having been outscored 71-0, while Great Falls has struggled to a 14-96 deficit in points. It’s tough times for both sides, but could this be the game that breaks the slump? We’ll find out at 7:30 p.m.
The Atlantic Collegiate Armada are also looking for their first win as they head to Lewisville, who have celebrated two victories so far this season (2-0). Lewisville’s quarterback, Zack Rogers, is making waves, scoring all but one of the team’s nine touchdowns. Meanwhile, the Armada has faced tough competition, being outscored 89-7. This clash promises to be an exciting contest as we watch a younger team try to find their footing.
In another exciting matchup, the Blythewood Bengals (2-0) will face off against the Fort Mill Yellow Jackets (1-0). Blythewood’s quarterback John Henry Collins has been impressive, aided by talented wide receiver Benjamin Hendrix, who is averaging an impressive 105 receiving yards per game. Fort Mill’s defense, fresh off a 56-0 win, will have its work cut out for them trying to halt Blythewood’s aerial assault.
Next up, the Buford Yellowjackets (1-1) travel to face the Highland Tech Rams (1-0). Highland Tech is celebrating a recent victory after ending a 31-game losing streak, while Buford will look to establish their ground game led by Noah Crump and running back Antonio Ames. This matchup should be a significant test for both teams as they aim for another win.
As the Catawba Ridge Copperheads (1-1) gear up to meet Chester (0-1), all eyes will be on quarterback C.J. Couch, who’s averaging an impressive 290 passing yards per game. Chester will be seeking redemption after a rocky opener, with their secondary aiming to capitalize on last week’s three interceptions. It’s a match with history, as Chester has previously edged past Catawba Ridge – will they continue that trend?
The Indian Land Warriors (2-0) will clash with the Andrew Jackson Volunteers (0-1) in what promises to be a competitive game. Jamol Horton has been a standout for Indian Land, averaging 85 rushing yards, while Andrew Jackson looks to bounce back from a tough loss against a seasoned Bluffton team. Expect both teams to fight hard for a much-needed victory!
Several other matchups are set to unfold that evening as Palisades (1-1) visits Clover (1-1), the River Bluff Gators (2-0) take on Nation Ford (1-1), and Rock Hill (0-2) faces off against the Lancaster Bruins (1-1). Also on the calendar is a game between the S.C. Spartans (1-2) and Thomas Jefferson Academy (0-2), as well as a matchup of two top teams – South Florence (1-1) plays against undefeated Northwestern (2-0).
With all these exciting games lined up, local sports fans are in for a treat. As the community rallies behind their teams, it’s sure to be an unforgettable night of high school football action. So grab your snacks, cheer on your favorites, and let’s celebrate the highs and lows of high school football!
