This week WCHL will be broadcasting the game between Northwood and Carrboro. Kickoff is at 7:30 at Carrboro High School.

The Jaguars are still looking for their first win of the season, coming off a blowout loss to Chapel Hill last week to fall to 0-3. The Tiger offense was unstoppable as they beat the Tigers 52-15. Jaguar QB Gordon Guest went 11-21 for 71 yards. He hooked up with WR Greyson Magee on a 39 yard touchdown pass.

Northwood earned its first win of the season last week against Jordan Matthews 21-7. The Chargers relied on the workhorse running back Montel Goods, who touched the ball 30 times and ran for 270 yards. He scored two touchdowns and his longest run was 63 yards, which was more than the entire Jordan Matthews team combined.

Last year Northwood topped Carrboro 56-14.

The Southeast Raleigh Bulldogs and Chapel Hill Tigers were in the second quarter of their Thursday-night varsity football game when the clouds opened up.

The Bulldogs led 13-6 with 9:40 left in the first half as a storm closed in on Southeast Raleigh and dumped heavy rain and lightning into the area. The game was postponed and will be continued Friday evening at 6.

Officials had already delayed the game 30 minutes at the start due to lightning.

In other action this week, East Chapel Hill travels to Bartlett Yancey, Cedar Ridge travels to Riverside and Orange defends their home field against Cummings.

Make sure to tune in to WCHL for all of your local high school football coverage.
