While much of the eastern U.S. looks for a wet weekend as Hurricane Florence tramples the coast, there are sure to be fireworks at Mylan Pharmaceuticals Stadium on Friday night.
No. 8 University, which climbs back into the Class AAA Top 10 after falling out with a week one loss to John Marshall, will host No. 4 Wheeling Park in a battle between two of the most explosive offenses in Class AAA.
Each team enters the game averaging more than 400 yards of total offense per game — the Hawks sit at an average of 422 yards, while the Patriots earn a slight advantage at 431 yards. The Hawks have outscored their opponents 92-55 through three games, while Park enters with an astounding 100-12 scoring advantage after two games.
Park will feature a ground-and-pound rushing game that racks up 294 yards per game on the back of junior back Raphael Bradley, who has tallied 314 yards and two touchdowns thus far.
