The Campbell High School football team returns to Indian Field tonight to host Tyler HEAT (Home Education Athletics Teams) in six-man football action. The Indians (1-3) won at Fruitvale 54-6 two weeks ago before suffering a 25-24 defeat at Grace Classical Christian Academy in Granbury last week. Tonight is homecoming for Campbell High School.
Head coach Preston Compton says the Indians are ready to rebound from a tough loss at Granbury and return to the same kind of offensive form they displayed at Fruitvale.
“Our kids are gonna battle back,” Compton said. “Our kids realize what they can do. We’re really focusing on blocking this week, and taking care of business.”
