By Staff

PHIL CAMPBELL – The Phil Campbell football team suffered a heart-breaking loss to Hatton last week as the Hornets scored as time expired to pull out a 36-35 victory against the Bobcats.
Phil Campbell will try to rebound from that loss this week as the Bobcats host Westminster Christian Academy in the final home game this season.
Both teams are playing for pride at this point, as they were eliminated from playoff contention two weeks ago.
The Bobcats and Wildcats are both 2-6 overall and 1-5 in region play and both have beaten Cherokee.
The winner of this game will finish sixth in the region and the loser will finish seventh.
The Bobcats are hoping to get the win to help build a strong foundation for next season.
The Wildcats are averaging only 12.6 points per game while allowing an average of 31.5 points.
Phil Campbell is scoring 18.9 points per game and giving up 31.5 points.
The game begins at 7 p.m.
