Canton, Velma Jackson aim to build on momentum in Week Four

The Canton Tigers will look to extend their winning ways Friday night as they host a key Week Four matchup. Canton enters the contest at 2–1, fresh off a commanding 42–6 victory over Murrah. Behind standout performances on both sides of the ball, the Tigers quickly put the game out of reach, highlighted by Mississippi State commit Jayden Cration finding the end zone each time he touched the football. That bounce-back win followed a 33–13 setback to Terry the week before, and now Canton hopes to keep its streak alive and carry the momentum into tomorrow night’s game.

Across the county, Velma Jackson also rides into Week Four with confidence after its own lopsided win. The Falcons moved to 2–1 by downing Jefferson County 34–6, showcasing a balanced offense and stingy defense. Earlier in the month, Velma Jackson dropped a tight season-opener to Canton but has since responded with back-to-back strong performances. Tomorrow’s matchup offers the Falcons another chance to prove they can sustain their winning streak against quality competition as they look to build on last week’s success.
