5A Playoffs Second Round Round: North Laurel (5-6) at Southwestern (6-5)

Stream: N/A

Radio: Lake Cumberland Sports

Tale of the Tape: 

Last Meeting- Southwestern 23 North Laurel 14

Overall this season was bipolar for North Laurel. Opening night saw them beat a solid Bell County club, but in week 9 they dropped an ugly one to Taylor County. However, none of that matters now. The Jags come into this one after a first round upset on the road against district champion Montgomery County. Over the past few weeks North has been relying more and more on their ground game—however, they only rushed for 81 yards on 30 carries against SW in their first matchup, so they will likely have to put the ball in the air a bit more this week. 

Southwestern seems to have finally found their footing after scoring more points than they had all season last week against East Jessamine, securing a first half running clock in the process. They will look to keep the ball rolling this week, as they attempt to make their 9th straight region championship game. 

Can the Jags secure the upset? Or has Southwestern 'figured it out'? 

 

*Interesting note: If Southwestern and Cooper win, the Warriors first three games in the playoffs will be against "Jaguars."

If I am looking correctly, it looks like the winner of this game would get Cooper in round 3 (assuming a Cooper victory tonight), so good luck with that! ?

Does anyone have the direct audio link to this broadcast?
