After their upset bid fell just short last Friday vs Homer, the Glenbrook Apaches hope to right the ship vs the Mariners at Independence Stadium in Shreveport.
The Mariners will feature a bruising presence in senior RB/LB Meciah Butler (6’0 230lbs), who rushed for over 1,000 yards during his junior season.
The Apache defense will be without a pair of starters due to injury and will look to juniors Dayton Sims and Trey Yetman to fill the void.
While the Mariner defense has been very charitable throughout the first four games, giving up a total of 175 points (44 ppg), they did manage to secure their first victory last week as they bested Ringgold with a score of 30-26.
The Apache offense will hope it picks up where it left off in the 2nd half last week as they were able to put 21 points on the board while pulling within 7 points of Homer in the final minutes of the game.
In order for the Apache offense to have success, they will need Luke Vining, Cade Vining, Jackson Lott, Spencer Brantley, and Garrett Brown to play well on the offensive line.
The Mariners are currently in their 3rd year of varsity football with a record of 2-23.
“They get after it, they have some quality players. They just don’t have 25 quality players but have good ones and we are going to try to attack the ones that aren’t that good,” said Coach David Feaster.
Kick off will be 7 p.m. at Independence Stadium in Shreveport.
