Friday Night Football Central Previews for Week 4

It’s Week 4 already!? Hey, it goes by fast once the season gets started, and so far, it hasn’t disappointed. Several of our coverage area teams are sitting pretty good in the non-district standings, and this week a few will finish up that portion of their schedule as district will be starting very, very soon. Last week, Cameron Yoe picked up their first win of the season in overtime against the Maypearl Panthers. Rosebud-Lott remains unbeaten after their win at home over the Dawson Bulldogs. Thorndale moved to 2-1 on the season with their blowout win over the Bartlett Bulldogs, and the Buckholts Badgers picked up a huge win over Mullin to also move to 2-1 on the year. Chilton improved to 30, shutting out Marlin – still looking for their first win – and have not been scored on the past two games. Milano returns to action this week and hope to see their first win on the season. Let’s see who will be playing who, and where!
