Grundy (4-3) at Chilhowie (6-1)
The first seven weeks of the season have provided two completely different results for the Grundy Golden Wave. After starting the season 4-0, Craig Plymal’s squad has dropped three in a row. The losing skid is the longest of Plymal’s tenure as the head coach of his alma mater. The last time Grundy lost three or more games in a row was in 2015 when Jeremy Ward’s version of the Golden Wave finished 2015 on a six game losing skid.… 
J.I. Burton (4-2) at Grundy (4-2)
Two very familiar foes are set to do battle on Friday night at Nelson Memorial Stadium in Grundy.
The Raiders and the Golden Wave have met up three times in the past two seasons. Grundy took care of business in the first meeting of 2017 in a 34-7 victory. However, when the two met later that year in the playoffs, Jimbo Adams and the gang was able to snake out a 19-14 victory on the same field in which they were defeated less than a month prior.… 
Hurley (2-2) at Grundy (4-1)
Nelson Memorial Field will be Buchanan County’s grandest stage on Friday night when Hurley makes the 12-mile trip across Slate Creek to do battle with Grundy.
These Buchanan County foes both look to get back into the win column on Friday.
The bye week came at the right time for Austin Cooper’s Hurley Rebels. After opening Cooper’s inaugural campaign 2-0, the Rebels have lost two in a row to Patrick Henry and River View. … 
Grundy (4-0) at Honaker (2-1)
The winner of this matchup will be the favorite to win the Black Diamond District in 2019.
Grundy blanked East Ridge, KY a week ago 48-0 to get to 4-0 for the first time since 2016. It was the same song and dance for the Golden Wave in week four that it has been all season. The freshman fiasco, Ian Scammell, rushed for 205 yards and three touchdowns for Grundy as it returned from Pike County a victor. … 
Rye Cove (1-0) at Hurley (1-0)
Both teams are coming off wins over out of state opponents leading into Friday’s matchup at the Cliff.
Rye Cove is coming off its first opening week victory since a 72-62 win over Holston back in 2014. However, the Eagles did not have to work hard for its first victory. The first win came via forfeit after Jenkins, KY notified Cheyenne Osborne and his staff that they did not have enough to play in the opening tilt.…
