Mavericks vs Science Hill Seeking Redemption
KNOXVILLE, Tennessee (WATE) — Anderson County opened the season with a 48-14 win over 5A state champion Powell.
Science Hill had an equally impressive victory over 4A runners-up Elizabethton in Week 1.
The Hilltoppers are expected to stack boxes to slow the Mavericks’ powerful running offense, but they need to be careful what they want, according to Anderson County head coach Davey Gillam. I have.
“I think if we keep walkers, they’re going to have a hard time keeping us on the back end. “We want to have a balanced attack. Last week Nick and Gavin ran the ball hard, this week Nick is going to take most of the carry, and we want to maintain some balance, but we’re also looking forward to testing that secondary as well.”
The Mavs want a little redemption after Science Hill won the matchup 36-21 last season.
