Tonight is the Respectful Rivalry pitting the Natomas Nighthawks against the Inderkum Tigers and if history is an indication of anything, odds are not on the Nighthawks’ side.
Things have been rough for the Nighthawks team which has not won a single game all season. Natomas High has also never defeated the Tigers on the football field.
In their five meetings since 2006, the Tigers have dominated the Nighthawks, outscoring them by an average of 49.2 points to 7.8 points.
The Nighthawks will have to fight to change the trend.
For the season, the Tigers are scoring 33.4 points per game while holding opponents to 18.2 points per game. In contrast, the Nighthawks as scoring 12.8 points per game while allowing opponents to score 37.2 points per game.
Not all hope is lost for the Nighthawks to pull of an upset; they had a strong start against the Linden Lions earlier this year, and played a close game against River Valley.
Game kicks off 7 p.m. tonight at at Inderkum High School.
