Del Val’s football team enters this Friday’s game with a record of 4-3 from the year, whereas Hillside arrives with a record of 4-2. This means a win over the Comets could secure a home playoff game for the Terriers. As Del Val and Hillside have similar records, everyone should be expecting a strong game between two evenly matched teams.

In preparation for this Friday’s game against Hillside, the Del Val football team is trying new strategies.

“We’re going through the plays slower to understand them and putting better people on scout on offense and defense,” said senior defensive lineman Austin Aycock.

In addition, Del Val’s offense and defense are trying another new technique.

“We are doing more double teams” said senior defensive lineman Mikey Gohil.

Del Val has a tough game ahead of them against the Hillside Comets, but as long as the tenacious Terriers persevere in this Friday’s game, they are sure to pull out a win.
