It will be the second start at quarterback for Brandon Hinson, who took the spot after a Legion baseball injury to Wyatt Lalumandier. Weik says he saw good things from Hinson in their opener last weekend.

The East Prairie Eagles will take to the roadways as they battle the Jefferson Blue Jays in the Week 2 J-98 WebTV “Game of the Week.” Both teams had victories in Week 1 in completely different fashions. East Prairie shut down Kelly 59-0 and Jefferson let a 20 point lead nearly slip away, hanging on to defeat Cabool 26-24. Despite the big win over Kelly, Eagles head coach Chad Jamerson knows Jefferson will be the ultimate test for his team.

Even though Eagles quarterback Derez Tipler and running back Deverence Jones stand out offensively, Jamerson believes his defensive players can create some havoc for the Blue Jays as well.

Any way you slice it, it’s going to take a flawless effort from both teams if either of them are going to walk out of the stadium with a 2 and 0 record.
