Thursday night’s Hogoheegee District matchup features two teams who have had entirely different seasons.

Coach Keith Warners Titans have kept their playoff hopes alive. Needing to win their final two games against Thomas Walker and Rye Cove, the Titans took their first step this past Friday night as they went on the road and upended the highly favored Pioneers, 35-13.
Coach Nick Johnsons Pioneers have now lost two in a row after a 6-1 start to their season. Coming off of a 37-12 loss to Eastside last week, Thomas Walker was still in position to be hosting a playoff game but those hopes are now dwindling away after a loss to Twin Springs and a matchup with 7-2 J.I.… 
Wise Central continued to stay on their recent tear Friday night as they piled up 410 yards on offense to upend the Blue Devils 35-21 in a playoff like atmosphere at Legion Field in Gate City.
Gate City (4-6, 2-4) came in to Fridays contest with a three game winning streak while Central (7-2, 4-2) had recorded three straight wins themselves. Running out of the Wing-T, the three headed monster in Centrals backfield racked up 375 yards rushing behind the blocking of the Warriors athletic offensive line.… 
When Union and Abingdon met at Falcon Stadium Friday night, each team had a bad taste in their mouths as they were both coming off of losses that they soon wanted to forget. Union was upset by Central and Abingdon took a 41-0 shellacking at the hands of Ridgeview. However, at least a share of the Mountain 7 crown was still in reach for the winner of the contest. Behind another superb effort from Senior Mason Polier, the Union Bears laid claim as the victor in a 28-21 double overtime thriller on a frost covered field in Abingdon.… 
Twin Valley (2-6) at Castlewood (5-3)
Twin Valley’s blunders continued last week when the Panthers travelled to Rye Cove. Jeremy Ward’s squad returned from Rye Cove on the wrong end of a 38-8 decision last Friday night. In its third consecutive loss, the Panthers were only able to amass 50 yards of total offense and a touchdown from Larry Justice.
A win this Friday night on the road in Russell County will not be an easier to come by. …

Northwood (1-7) at Honaker (4-4)
Doug Hubbard and the Honaker Tigers looks to bounce back on Senior Night at Fuller Field against the Northwood Panthers on Friday.
The Tigers made the trip to Glade Spring a week ago to do battle with Region 1D’s best in the Patrick Henry Rebels. Mark Palmer’s squad pummeled Honaker by a score of 49-21. Trevor Dye led the Honaker rushing attack with 70 yards. Isaac Perkins accounted for two touchdowns against the Rebels—one through the air and one on the ground.… 
There were fireworks. There was electricity in the air. And there was the Graham defense.
The G-Men shut down a surging Richlands offensive attack, blowing past the Blue Tornado 37-10.
Graham (6-2) started quick behind a touchdown run from ODU-commit Devin Lester. But soon after, Lester was ejected for a helmet-to-helmet hit. The validity of the flag — and the ensuing ejection — depends on which end of Tazewell County you reside.… 
Auburn (4-5) at Hurley (4-4)
After back-to-back thrillers on the road, the Hurley Rebels return home to The Cliff on Friday to host the Auburn Eagles.
The Rebels fell on the road in Damascus last week to the Holston Cavaliers by a score of 28-22. Holston scored the game-winning touchdown with under a minute to play on a 14-yard pass from Quaheim Brooks to Logan Walden.
Matthew Blankenship, who found the end zone on the ground twice, led the Hurley offense.…
