RECORDS: Joplin 2-2, Willard 0-4
LAST WEEK: Joplin 49, Carl Junction 28; Ozark 42, Willard 14
LAST YEAR: Joplin 36-13
OUTLOOK: Joplin is coming off a convincing win against Carl Junction and will look to keep the momentum going with a second straight road game at Willard. The biggest question for Joplin will be whether or not senior running back Nathan Glades suits up and plays. Glades injured his knee in the win over the Bulldogs in the second half. Last week against Carl Junction, Joplin QB Always Wright completed 11-of-14 passes for 296 yards and added a rushing touchdown. Glades ran 24 times for 177 yards and four touchdowns, while Trayshawn Thomas caught five passes for 142 yards.
Willard QB Tyler Janes completed 15-of-24 passes for 128 yards and an interceptions last week. He added 11 rushes for 16 yards and a score. Eli Aye caught six passes for 61 yards.
