Jeff’s Homer Preview:

Pender (3-1) takes on Homer (1-3) on the road Friday night. The Knights lost 47-6 at GACC last week.

Jeff’s Take on the Contest:

This game will be a good measuring stick for the Pendragons. With GACC coming calling next week it’s imperative that Pender play well to see where they stand going into the matchup with the Bluejays. That game will decide the District most likely, and should be a great one. First things first though, the Pendragons have to take care of business this week first to set up that showdown with the Bluejays.
