High school football makes up much of the local Friday schedule, as Mountain Home makes its fourth road trip in five weeks. The Bombers will again be near the Oklahoma line, as they meet Van Buren.
Mountain Home is 1-4 on the season and 0-2 in the 6A-West. The Bombers suffered a 24-point loss last week in Greenwood. Van Buren is 4-1 and 1-1. The Pointers are coming off their first loss of the season at the hands of Russellville.
Mountain Home head coach Steve Ary says this is a game with possible postseason implications.
