5A Battle

Battle of the Westside

Ranked #3  in 5A

Ranked #10 in 5A

Both Ben Davis and Pike opened up the 2012 season in impressive fashion. The Giants knocked off 4A #1 and perennial power Cathedral 24-21 while Pike controlled North Central 23-6. Last year the Giants defeated the Red Devils 28-22.

This years game looks to be evenly matched athletically with Pike seemingly having more experience at key positions. Look for quarterback Brent Lyles and receiver Dominique Booth to test the Giant secondary, while defensive end David Kenney  and his defensive mates provide constant pressure to the Giants offense. Mr. Football candidate and heavy hitter from his safety position Antonio Allen will look to stalemate the Red Devil potent passing attack.

Look for this game to be close again this year.
