Second week in prep playoffs gets tougher

There are always blowouts in the first week of the high school playoffs., and that was no different this year.

Things change this Friday. Homer, which crushed Fisher by a 56-14 score, gets Riverside of Reserve. Though Riverside is 5-6, it played in a brutal district with the likes of John Curtis, St. James and St. Charles and went 5-2 in nondistrict games.

Springhill has 10-1 Kinder coming to town, and the Lumberjacks could be tested like they haven't been in weeks. Ditto for Minden, which faces 8-3 Sam Houston.
