The 8th-ranked (Class A) Tug Valley Panthers look to build on their four-game winning streak as they travel to River View on Friday.
The Panthers (4-1) will have freshman Preston May starting at quarterback. May has completed 41-of-70 passes for 580 yards, 11 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. He also has 9 carries for 76 yards.
Sophomore Bryson Elia has led the Panther rushing attack with 556 yards and 8 touchdowns on 50 rushing attempts. He is also Tug Valley’s leading receiver with 21 catches for 364 yards and 4 touchdowns.
Cameron Slone and Buddy Marcum also give the Panthers two other strong weapons in the pass game. Slone has 9 catches for 153 yards and 2 touchdowns. Marcum also has 9 catches for 122 yards and 4 touchdowns.
River View (2-3) is coming into the game after a 38-14 win over Van two weeks ago.
A Panther win would continue their upward trajectory in the Class A playoff race.
The opening kick is set for 7 pm at River View.
