#Gameday Avon Homecoming

Tonight, your Rocks come home to face the Avon Orioles. The Orioles come into the game with a 5-1 record (3-1 HCC), having lost only to Brownsburg. Conference-wise, they have defeated HSE, Franklin Central, and Fishers. Fishers was their opponent last Friday, where the Orioles earned 33-0 victory.

Avon averages 33.7 ppg on 389 ypg (186 ground, 203 air). They are led by RB Sampson James (#2) who has notched 843 all-purpose yards on the year to go along with 9 rushing touchdowns. He's averaging 123 rushing yards per game, while QB Henry Hesson (#10) tacks on a healthy 181 passing yards per game. Hesson will spread the ball around to a bevvy of receivers, including Jalen Peterson (#11) and Wallace Stovall Jr (#13), who each have around 300 receiving yards this year and 5 touchdowns between them. Avon will look to establish the run game, while utilizing play action passing strikes to move the ball downfield. The Rock D will need to be tough and disciplined tonight in order to hold the experienced Oriole offense in check.

No directions needed for this one. We'll see you at Riverview Health Stadium for all of the festivities. Kickoff is set for 7pm.
