What to watch

There’s no recent meeting on file between these programs, so Friday’s game offers a fresh matchup and a chance for both teams to establish early-season momentum. Valley View will be at home, while Xavier Prep makes the short road trip — a factor that can matter in close JV tilts. SBLive follower counts are low right now (Valley View: 0, Xavier Prep: 1), so passionate fans can make an immediate impact by following their teams.
