Jeff’s David City Preview:
Clarkson/Leigh (4-3) hosts David City (7-0) Friday night for the District Championship and in the regular season finale. The Scouts won 64-14 at home over Humphrey-Lindsay last week.
Jeff’s Take on the Contest:
This is a big one. It’s for all the marbles. The Patriots still may make the playoffs should they lose, but a win would solidify a playoff spot for Clarkson/Leigh. This should be a great game. This will be the best opponent that David City has played all year. It’s their toughest test of the season to date, and the game is in Patriot Country. The Patriots have to play spoiler to the Scouts’ undefeated season and hand them their first loss of the year and prevent them from winning the District Title and finishing the regular season unbeaten. It could happen too.
