IT’S GAMEDAY and HOMECOMING for your Rivercrest Colts as they play host to the Harrisburg Hornets. Homecoming activities begin at 6:20pm with kickoff slated for 7pm.
After a tough non-conference schedule and dropping a close one to Pocahontas last week, the Colts enter this contest 1-3 overall and 0-1 in conference. Harrisburg sits at 2-2 on the year and 0-1 in conference after losing to Blytheville last Friday 38-0. Manila has been the only common opponent for both teams. Rivercrest won their match-up 47-12 and Harrisburg won two weeks ago 10-6.
The Hornet offense is led by sophomore QB Eastin Gray who has thrown for 413 yards and 3TDs and has run for 154 yards and 4 scores. Gray’s favorite target has been senior wideout Trey Davis who has 196 yards receiving and is averaging a ridiculous 39.6 yards/reception. Harrisburg is led in rushing by junior Gavin Kimble who has 289 rushing yards and a score.
The Colts have been led by junior running back Koby Turner who has 450 yards and 8TDs. Turner averages 8 yards/carry. Junior Michael Rainer leads the Colts in receiving with 201 yards and 3TDs. Rivercrest has a sophomore QB of their own in Cavonta Washington. Washington has completed 72% of his passes for 350 yards and 5TDs. On defense, the Colts have been led by LB Marcus Slayton, DT Trent Kimbrough, and DE Wyatt Lancaster. Slayton has 54 tackles (13.5 tackles/game). That’s good for 3rd in 4A in total tackles and 3rd in the state overall for tackles/game.
Rivercrest leads the overall series 19-2. The Colts’ last game and win against Harrisburg came in a 41-26 victory back in 2013.
We’ll have amazing weather, homecoming activities, and great high school football action this evening so come out and support the red and gray. GO COLTS!

IT’S GAMEDAY…and your Rivercrest Colts will travel to take on preseason 4A-3 favorite, Pocahontas. Kickoff is slated for 7pm.
The Colts dropped to 1-2 overall on the season after coming up short against 5A Valley View two weeks ago 37-34. The Colts come in averaging just over 38 points per contest. Early on, Rivercrest has leaned on junior RB Koby Turner who has rushed for 382yds and 6TDs while averaging 9.1 yards/carry. QB/WR Michael Rainer and WR Jaden Stovall have put up solid numbers. On defense, the Colts have been led by LB Marcus Slayton, DT Trent Kimbrough, and DE Wyatt Lancaster.
Pocahontas is 2-1 on the year after dispatching of Brookland a couple of weeks ago, 47-28. Like the Colts, the Redskins only loss on the season came to a 5A team. Pocahontas lost a close one in week 2 to Nettleton, 26-21. Senior QB/DE Connor Baker (6’0” 210) is the player that makes them go. Baker ran for over 2,200 yards and 42 TDs last season and is one of the fastest and most powerful runners in the state. Baker has really improved his passing this season and has some good ones to throw it to led by 6’3” 190 senior Harrison Carter. Tripp Risley is a major part of that receiving corp as well. Sophomore RB Reagan Womack (6’2” 220) will flank Baker in the backfield. WR Grayson Mauppin is a playmaker who does a great job running the football as well. The Pocahontas defense was expected to be a strength returning 9 of 11 starters and they definitely have been so far this season.
The Colts lead the series 11-3. The Colts won last year’s matchup 61-41. The last Pocahontas win in this series came in 2007, 47-17.
Head to Pocahontas this evening to enjoy some fall weather, high school football, and to cheer on your Colts. GO COLTS!
