Game preview: Westmoore at US Grant

By Justin Hite and Scott Wright

Westmoore Jaguars (2-2) at U.S. Grant (0-4)
When: 7:30 p.m. Friday
Where: U.S. Grant

Westmoore (2-2)
Why the Jaguars can win: It’s true. Westmoore has gone old school. The Jaguars love to pound the ball and play defense. The thing is…they do both pretty well. Aside from a Week 2 game against Southmoore, Westmoore has given up an average of less than 10 points per game. They shut out Edmond Santa Fe last week.

U.S. Grant (0-4)
Why the Generals can win: The new coaching staff put in an offense that was more complex than what any of these kids had run before, so they knew it would take some time to get everybody on the same page. But it will take a defensive performance from the Generals to get it done this week, because Westmoore’s defense is strong, so you can’t expect big points.

Justin’s key matchup: U.S. Grant running game vs. Westmoore front seven. Sure, it’s a tough matchup for U.S. Grant, but if the Generals are going to break through at all, it’s going to have to be here. The only problem is the Westmoore defensive front has gotten better every week.
