Raiders trail 1-13 in all-time football series in Huntsville private school rivalry.
For years, Madison Academy dominated its football series with Randolph, rolling up a 13-0 advantage. Not counting a 1-0 Randolph forfeit in 2020, the Mustangs outscored the Raiders 361-94.The teams meet for the 15th time on Friday at 7 p.m. at Madison Academy’s Bill Washington Stadium.
David Lloyd, now 25-12 in his fourth season as the head coach at Randolph, also praised the rivalry. “It’s good to have that rivalry with the private schools,” he said. “It’s been really good the past few years when all of us had pretty good football teams. It makes for some pretty intense games. You want to play tough football and give your best effort every week.”
Sixth-ranked Class 3A Madison Academy opened the year with a 42-6 rout of 4A Deshler on the road last week. Junior running back Ken Cherry rolled up 221 yards and scored three touchdowns in the win. “He’s played a lot of ball for us,” Godsey said. “He’s had to overcome some things in terms of injuries. He shows up and works every day.
“They have a ton of weapons back from last year. We knew coming in that our first two weeks we’d play high-quality football teams. That’s why we schedule them. If we’re going to get better, we have to play good football teams.” “William is also playing his first year at running back for us,” Lloyd said. “He had a combined 90 yards from scrimmage with four catches for 60 yards. He’s been our starting guard for three years and now he’s one of our running backs. It was a really good night for him.
