Hot List

With a one point win over the formerly undefeated Springfield Yellow Jackets, 21-20, the Henry County Patriots moved to the top of District 10-AAA. The win was the Patriots third in a row and fourth straight against District 10-AAA opponents.

The Northeast Eagles had found a way to lose their first six games. On Friday, they found a way to get their first win against the West Creek Coyotes, 14-0. The win put them ahead of two teams who have yet pick up and league wins.

Week 7 Review

The Rossview Hawks continued to soar this week. They dealt the Kenwood Knights their second loss in a row, 26-18. The Knights loss drops them out of a three-way tie with the Hawks and Wildcats in the middle of the standings.

With their 35-14 win over the Northwest Vikings, the Wildcats hold their spot in the rankings this week. Both the Wildcats and Hawks are 3-3 in the league. However, the Hawks defeated the Wildcats head to head in week 3.

The Coyotes and Vikings have yet to win against a District 10-AAA opponent. Both the Clarksville Academy Cougars (5-2) and the Montgomery Central Indians (3-4) picked up wins this week. The Cougars are currently second in District 10A competition.

Crucial inter-league play continues this week. Both the Wildcats and the Coyotes have tough road battles ahead. The Wildcats will face the Patriots and the Coyotes will play the surging Hawks.
