Two high octane offenses will take the field Friday night at Tommy McAmis field in Norton. The question is, will defense prevail between two rival Mountain 7 district foes, or will there be a track meet under the Friday night lights?

Ridgeview and Wise Central will contest the sixth meeting between the two programs on Friday night.  Wise Central took the first two meetings between the teams, however, Ridgeview has won the last three in convincing fashion.

The Warriors and the Wolfpack have both put up video game numbers in the first two weeks of the season.  Ridgeview is averaging a whopping 51.5 points over that span.  Not to be outdone, the Warriors are averaging 55.5 points over their first two games.

The Warrior defense will look to contain superstar Trenton Adkins.  Adkins has 652 yards and 11 touchdowns for the season already in wins over J. I. Burton and Shelby Valley.

The Wolfpack have also proven to be able to throw the pigskin around as well. Quarterback Nick Phillips has two touchdown tosses to receiver Timmy Hess.  Fullback Alijah Sproles will be called upon to pound the rock up the middle on short yardage situations.

Wise Central features a three headed monster rushing attack.  C. J. Crabtree leads the way for the Warriors with five touchdowns in the early going.  Matt Peters and Maddox Reynolds have also impressed as both went over the century mark in a week one win over Eastside.  Quarterback Ethan Mullins has displayed the ability to throw the ball and receiver Ben Brickey can go up and snag any ball from most defenders.

With Friday night’s showdown being the opening Mountain 7 district contest for both teams, a win is imperative.  An overflow crowd is expected to dwell upon Tommy McAmis Field Friday night.

Another intense showdown in the battle of these two district rivals is sure to not disappoint.
