Enterprise (3-3, 0-1), coached by Brooks Burns, dropped a tough homecoming loss to the Prentiss Bulldogs 48-8 last week at Harry Cole Field.

This week, the Jackets will battle another tough Region 7-2A opponent as they host the three-time defending state champions, the Bassfield Yellowjackets.

The Yellowjackets (5-2, 1-0), coached by Lance Mancuso, dominated West Lincoln in their region opener, winning 59-6 over the Bears in Bassfield.

Several running backs had a big night for Bassfield as Kevin Mcnair led the pace with three rushes for 68 yards. Rickey Griffith provided two carries for 63 yards and Gerald Reese had two rushes for 62 yards.

Defensively, Rashaud Green and Jerome Johnson directed the Yellowjackets with six tackles each. Drudon Knight and Kevin Mcnair contributed five tackles apiece.

Enterprise’s top offensive performer against Prentiss was Tanner Waldrop with 18 rushes for 134 yards. He also ran back two kickoff returns. Braxton Thompson contributed 34 yards rushing on seven carries.

Zach Hodges completed one pass to receiver Brandt White for 33 yards.

Defensively, Devon Kirtfield and Tristan Cantrell powered Enterprise with five tackles each. Austin Boyte contributed four tackles. Zach Hodges, Drake Allen, Dewayne Pendleton and Dylan Nelton provided three tackles each. Mitchell Poole recovered a fumble.

Last year, Bassfield crushed Enterprise 53-14.

My prediction: The Yellowjackets of Bassfield win 49-8.
