Excitement Grips Wyoming High School Football in Week 7!

As autumn sets in over Wyoming, the excitement of high school football is heating up! Welcome to Week 7 of the thrilling high school football season, where the anticipation is palpable as teams gear up for some key matchups that could change the playoff landscape. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just enjoy the buzz of game day, there’s plenty to talk about.

Big Names and Bigger Stakes

This week promises to deliver fantastic football action, highlighted by two major showdowns featuring Top 10 teams in the state. The spotlight will shine brightly on the clash between Sheridan and Campbell County. Currently ranked #1, Sheridan is looking to lock in the coveted No. 1 playoff seed with a victory over #2 ranked Campbell County. This matchup is a must-watch! With both teams holding undefeated records, the energy is sure to be electric.

For Campbell County, all eyes will be on their star quarterback, Coulter Lang. This talented player has been on fire, rushing for a remarkable 575 yards and scoring seven touchdowns, while also securing 816 passing yards and 12 touchdowns. No doubt, he’s a key figure to watch in this high-stakes encounter.

Defensive Stans and Offensive Powerhouses

Shifting focus to the resilient Sheridan team, they lead the conference in rush defense, allowing just 111 yards per game. However, they can’t afford to let their guard down; last season, they suffered a narrow defeat to Star Valley, which serves as a reminder of how quickly things can change on the field. With their current standing of 2-1 in the 3A West Conference, Sheridan must remain laser-focused as they face off against the challenging Wolves.

Over in Cody, the local team is feeling the heat as they prepare to take on Green River. Cody’s defense has struggled recently, giving up 201 passing yards per game. This is concerning, especially with Green River’s quarterback, Maddux Hintz, racking up an impressive 1,440 passing yards and 15 touchdowns this season. Both teams are battling to avoid a fourth-place finish in the competitive 3A East Conference, making this match all the more important.

Checking in on the 2A West Title

Mountain View faces off against Thermopolis. Both teams find themselves undefeated in conference play, boasting records of 5-0. Mountain View has been on an offensive tear, averaging an astonishing 457 yards per game. But don’t count Thermopolis out just yet; their defense has been stellar, allowing just 165 yards and 11 points each game. This clash is bound to be a thrilling watch!

1A 9-Man Showdown

In the 1A ranks, defending state champions Pine Bluffs are preparing to defend their home field against Lingle-Ft. Laramie in what promises to be another nail-biter for the championship in the 1A 9-Man East conference. After emerging victorious in last year’s matchup with a score of 28-22, Pine Bluffs is eager to repeat that success this season. Their quarterback, Carsten Freeburg, has been remarkable, throwing for 899 yards with nine touchdowns and leading the classification with 16 rushing touchdowns.

Busy Game Day Schedule!

Mark your calendars for the action: Week 7 is packed with excitement featuring 23 games on Friday and four on Saturday, primarily consisting of critical conference matchups. One game to keep in mind is Sheridan’s clash against Campbell County, scheduled for October 17th at 6 p.m., which could have substantial implications for the playoff standings.
