Game of the Week
Briarwood (3-4) at John Carroll (2-5)
- Class 5A, Region 5
- Date: Friday, Oct. 10
- Time: 7 p.m.
- Location: Pat Sullivan Field
Last week: Briarwood fell to Corner 42-27; John Carroll lost to Wenonah 33-14.
What to watch: Both of these teams suffered disappointing fates in region play last week and are looking to right the ship. Briarwood is fresh off two straight losses after an inspiring three-game winning streak. The Lions have shown flashes of brilliance each of the last two weeks, but have committed too many mistakes that have cost them. John Carroll is looking to get its offense back on track. The Cavs’ defense scored twice in last week’s loss and is hoping to build on that big-play ability. A Briarwood win would all but assure the Lions a playoff berth at this point.
Last meeting: Briarwood held off John Carroll 21-17 on Oct. 11, 2024. Briarwood has won 12 of the 15 all-time meetings.
Next week: Briarwood takes its open date, while John Carroll travels to Corner.
