The Hollywood Hills Spartans (3-1, 1-0) currently on a three game winning streak march into Brian Piccolo Memorial Stadium to face the Raiders on Friday night. St. Thomas (3-0, 0-0) coming off a bye week looks to send the visitors back to Hollywoodland with their first District 16-5A loss.
Again, this year Hills enters the game with a lot of pre-game momentum and hype with thoughts of defeating the Raiders. Not so fast young Spartans. The teams have two common opponents this season - South Plantation and Everglades - both the Raiders and Spartans have victories over those opponents. Hills won their games by a total of 8 points, while Aquinas rolled over the Paladins by 37 and stomped the Gators by 15. You do the math.
Look for these signs.
- With the offensive line leading the way, Raider offense scores early and often.
- Raider defense tightens to give Aquinas the edge in field position.
- St. Thomas' special teams force Spartan turnovers.
Different season, same result. The rested Raiders spear the Spartans.
