Probably the battle for the Gray division title! Both teams come in unbeaten with opposing styles of offense. Claymont struggled a bit with River View but still managed a decisive win mainly to big plays on defense, while Coshocton managed to dismantle Rosecrans. One of the biggest games of the season for both teams.

Who wins and why?

I'd love to see Claymont win this one and head to Dover undefeated but I think Coshocton takes this one.

If the Mustangs come out blazing like they did against Carrollton, I see them winning this game, but if they come out like they vs River View, it could be a long night for the Mustangs. I just hope for a clean, injury free game, and may the best team win!

As a Coshocton fan I'll admit my bias before my rant. :D

That being said, I know little about the Mustangs except that after many years of struggling, they appear to have finally put something together.

I can tell you about Coshocton. The Skins definitely have speed with several backs who can get the job done in particular Saquore Harris. Coshocton is also solid at the QB position, boasts a great kicking game, and a "bend but don't break" defense.

Statistically this one looks like an even match-up on paper.

I would agree that this game will loom large for producing the front-runner for the ECOL small school division championship.

Coshocton's speed and perennial playoff-caliber swagger should trump Claymont's newly found confidence and home field advantage.

Prediction:

Coshocton 28
Claymont 21

Claymont may have found themselves but I still see the Redskins winning w/o much trouble. They have the experience and know what it takes to win the close one's. This game should be a good gauge for where this Claymont team really is. Good Luck to both squads.
