Lawrence County (8-1, 3-0),  under the direction of second-year head coach Jaymie Palmer, is currently riding a seven-game winning streak after knocking off the South Pike Eagles 42-12 Friday in Magnolia.

This week, the Cougars are looking to extend their streak and maintain an undefeated record in division action as they visit Richland to battle the Rangers.

The Rangers (2-8, 0-3), coached by Paul Burtnett, suffered their fifth straight loss Friday, dropping a 64-21 decision to the North Pike Jaguars in Pricedale.

LCHS’ top offensive performer last week against South Pike was junior quarterback Charl’Tez Nunnery. He completed 9-of-18 passes for 173 yards and rushed for 100 yards on 11 carries. Quitten Brown contributed to the Cougars ground attack with 140 yards rushing on 20 carries and two touchdowns,

A.J. McLaurin was the top receiver for the Cougars with four catches for 62 yards. Marcus Atterberry caught two passes for 49 yards.

Defensively, T-Tez Cole and Azar Myles powered the Cougars with 17 tackles each. Rykendrick Harness had nine tackles and Jermaine Smith provided six tackles.

My prediction: Lawrence County bags another district win 49-12.
