The Miami Central Rockets take on the Blanche Ely Tigers at Richard L. Williams Stadium in Pompano Beach on Friday night. It is a rare meeting between these two programs that have plenty of winning tradition.
Miami Central(5-1) is one of the few schools in South Florida that have played six games so far this year. They compiled home victories over Chaminade-Madonna and Booker T. Washington, then flew to Nevada and beat Bishop Gorman. After a road loss at IMG Academy, the Rockets topped district rival Norland and Edison.
Running back James Cook will be the focus of their offense. Quarterback Maurice Underwood intends to find wide receivers Terrell Perriman, Zeryus Coleman and Seth McGill on passes for the Rockets.
Blanche Ely(2-3) played their first four games of the regular season on the road. They started off with defeats to Stranahan and Plantation before wins over Boyd Anderson and district foe Fort Lauderdale. The Tigers made their home debut on Monday and were blanked by Chaminade-Madonna. A down note for the team this season was that they were to host the annual McDougle Bowl against local rival Deerfield Beach, however the game was cancelled due to Hurricane Irma.
Quarterback Yanez Rogers looks to control the offense for the Tigers. His main targets will be wide receivers Akeem Hayes and Dashaun Davis.
