A pair of teams looking to rebound from tough losses will meet on Friday night (7) at Manning Field when Lynn Classical plays host to Beverly in the final nonleague game for both teams before each begins play in the NEC North and South next week.Classical comes in at 2-2 while the Panthers are at 2-1 in their nonleague slate. Each team will try to get back on the winning track after losing to Winthrop and Gloucester, respectively.For both teams, last week was not a banner day for the offense. The Rams were limited to 98 total yards and six points in a 16-6 loss at Winthrop. Beverly had an even tougher time with the Fishermen.Gloucester’s swarming defense allowed only three first downs and held the Panthers to minus-20 yards rushing and eight yards total in a 41-0 win at Hurd Stadium.Even with those struggles by the Panthers, Classical coach Tim Phelps knows that his team will be in for a test on Friday.”Beverly is a good football team and they always play us tough,” Phelps said. “All the games that I can remember against them have been close, hard-fought battles.”For Classical, finding consistency on offense is job number one. After the Rams rushed for 324 yards against Marblehead two weeks ago, the Vikings held Classical to a total of 89 yards on the ground last week.”The first couple of possessions, we looked great, and the last couple were great,” Phelps said. “But in the middle, we weren’t so great. We’ve got to learn to play for four quarters.”The Classical defense held the Vikings to 211 total yards, but Winthrop took advantage of a couple of critical turnovers, turning them into Nick McCarthy touchdowns. And the job doesn’t get easier this week against a Panther team that boasts plenty of talent.”They run the spread offense, but like to run out of it,” Phelps said. “They get you spread across the field and like to run up the middle or on the edge. You have to get to the ball and have kids make open-field tackles.”The Panthers will also look to get their explosive offense going in the right direction. Quarterback Joe Wioncek was picked off three times and completed just 6-of-20 passes against a relentless Gloucester blitz.But Phelps knows that if you get too aggressive with a pass rush, the Panthers can sting you quickly.”They run screens really well,” Phelps said. “If you can get a pass rush on them, you have to expect that screen next.”Marblehead at RevereAt Della Russo Stadium (7), Marblehead (3-1) comes in off the back of a 42-0 pasting of Georgetown last week while the Patriots (1-3) had a 14-10 halftime lead against Swampscott before falling, 37-14.Magician quarterback Hayes Richardson continued his stellar play in the win over the Royals, throwing two touchdown passes to Flynn McCormack and rushing for two others. The Marblehead defense also was on its game, holding the visitors to only 74 total yards and seven first downs.For Revere, quarterback Paul Norton had his best game of the season, completing 15-of-19 passes for 253 yards and a touchdown. He also added a five-yard run for a score.Lynnfield at DanversAt Deering Stadium (7), two of the pleasant surprises of the first quarter of the season will get together in a non-conference matchup.The Pioneers (3-1) come in riding high following a 34-0 win over Cathedral last week that saw the defense hold the Panthers to 100 total yards. The quarterback tandem of Gino Cohee and Chris Grassi, meanwhile, had a field day against the Panther defense.Cohee completed 5-of-6 passes for 56 yards and two touchdowns. He added a 60-yard touchdown run while Grassi had a 40-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Surette and added a 26-yard touchdown run of his own.Danvers (3-1) comes in off a 28-18 loss at Lynn English in a game that was much tighter than the score indicates. The Falcons got a pair of touchdown runs from Eric Burgos and 127 passing yards from quarterback Greg Ladd, who also booted a 20-yard field goal.Winthrop at PeabodyAt Lee Field (7), one team will look to get back on trac
