Gunter Aims to Keep Dominance Alive as Rematch with Leonard Looms

GUNTER — One streak rolls into another on Thursday night as Gunter prepares to meet a familiar foe. The Tigers have taken nine straight matchups from Leonard, and with kickoff set for seven o’clock, they’ll try to stamp a tenth while continuing one of the most explosive offensive stretches in the state. Gunter has topped thirty one points in every game for the last ten outings, so Leonard better be ready for a fast pace.

Gunter Roars In After Playoff Rout

Gunter enters with momentum to spare after flattening Henrietta 41 to 6 in last week’s postseason matchup. The Tigers controlled all four quarters, extending their mastery of the Bearcats with a sixth straight win in the series. The victory nudged Gunter to twelve and one and reinforced why they remain one of the toughest teams at their classification.

Leonard Survives a Thriller

Leonard needed all four quarters to escape Blue Ridge, edging out a 34 to 28 decision in a back and forth battle. The win pushed their mark to nine and four and showed the Tigers can deliver in tight situations, something they’ll need when stepping into the ring with Gunter’s high powered offense.

History Says Gunter Holds the Cards

These teams last met in November, a night Gunter controlled from start to finish in a forty four to zero statement. Leonard enters Thursday’s rematch a more seasoned squad, but Gunter’s track record speaks loudly.

One team has been cruising. One team arrives battle tested. Only one will move on. The answer comes under the lights soon enough.
