Flashes face pivotal contest at Hinds AHS

Published 11:39 am Thursday, September 1, 2011

Before the season, Hinds AHS was picked to finish last in Region 4-1A by the league’s coaches. After two games, it looks like St. Aloysius might be poised to take that unenviable honor.

When the teams play Friday night in Utica, it’ll be a pivotal game for both. Hinds trying to capitalize on its first win in nearly a year, St. Al going for its first of the season. With tougher stretches ahead, the region opener is also a chance for both teams to pick up a crucial win and maintain any playoff dreams that might harbor.

“It’s a very important game,” Hinds AHS coach Michael Fields said. “You want to come out of here with a victory. If you can’t come out of here with a victory, you’re looking at a hard road.”
