Impact Player To Watch For West Muskingum: QB Jake Anton
The last time the Dragons saw Anton, he was just a sophomore taking snaps. However, he wasn't the main focus of the offense at the time. Now as a senior, the Tornadoes look to him to make plays. Anton shows good touch on his passes and is just as dangerous with his legs as he is with is arm. Anton has the ability to evade tacklers when he scrambles and can help extend drives.
Matchup To Watch When West Muskingum Has The Ball: Offensive Line vs. Front 7
The Tornadoes will spread the field with their multiple formation sets, but they're not afraid to hand the ball off. The offensive line features 4 seniors and should be a big challenge for Fairland's experience up front. The Dragons will need to keep the Tornadoes from having a balanced attack and get pressure on Anton when they throw.

Impact Player To Watch For Fairland: LB Quentin Cremeans
The senior has been a key component for the defense, as he has accounted for 94 tackles this season. Along with the rest of the interior, Cremeans be tasked at maintaining his average of 8.5 tackles per game - or higher - to help stop the Tornado rushing attack.
Matchup To Watch When Fairland Has The Ball: Offensive Line vs. Defensive Line
The Tornadoes' defensive line will feature smaller and quicker guys up front to move around and penetrate the line of scrimmage. The Dragons offensive line will have to keep them out of the backfield long enough to allow Ethan Wall to get the ball out when throwing, and when Fairland tries to run the ball, they'll just need to open lanes for the backs to run.
