The crowd was tense at Friday's game versus Calvary Baptist Academy Cavaliers and the hosting Mansfield Wolverines. Calvary Baptist prevailed over Mansfield 27- 16. Calvary and Mansfield both now sport a 6-3 record going into the final season.

The opening kickoff went to Calvary, and they returned the ball to near midfield. However, the Wolverines defense held and Calvary punted the ball away. A big return by Mansfield now gave them the ball near midfield. The Wolverines could not capitalize on the good return, fumbling the ball away before making a first down.
