Western Hills (4-1) will host the Rockets (2-4) for a chance to earn a spot in the district post season.  Both teams coming off big loses, WH 0-38 to district opponent Spencer, SC 7-50 to district opponent Franklin.  Both are winless in the district with a lot riding on this game.  The Rockets will roll into town with a heavy run game led by #5 Giaonni Hunter who has already eclipsed the 1,000 yard rushing mark.  They will also bring 2nd year standout, #11 Issac Estrada at the MLB position.  One the other sideline, WH have the #1 sack leader in 4A, Javeon Campbell, posting 9.5 sacks through 5 games.  The Rockets have struggled giving the QB time early in the season, however, through the grapevine, starting senior QB, Chandler Hill, is no longer with the team.  #6, Javon Hunter is expected to make the start for Shelby meaning they will have a seriously dangerous run game.  The story tonight will come down to... can the Rockets give the young QB time to make downfield plays and can the defensive box of the Wolverines contain the big, explosive run game of Shelby.

Western Hill-13

Western Hills will struggle to win any district games IMO. I look for Hunter to have a big night.

Agreed.  I don't think WH record represents them as a team seeing their schedule.
