The Aquinas Falcons will square off against the Citrus Valley Blackhawks at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither Aquinas nor Citrus Valley posted many points in their last games, so it might be the defenses that decide this one.
Aquinas is headed into the matchup having just suffered their biggest defeat since August 25, 2023 on Thursday. They took a blow against JSerra Catholic, falling 35-7. While losing is never fun, the Falcons can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' California football rankings (they are ranked 116th, while the Lions are ranked fourth).
Meanwhile, Citrus Valley had to hit the road for their first game and it wasn't the result they were hoping for. They lost 27-3 to Etiwanda on Thursday. The contest was a close 6-3 at the break, but unfortunately for the Blackhawks it sure didn't stay that way.
