Edisto vs. Blackville-Hilda: Early-Season Showdown in South Carolina
The Edisto (Cordova, SC) and Blackville-Hilda (Blackville, SC) varsity football teams are set to face off in what promises to be an intriguing non-conference matchup. Both teams are looking to rebound from opening-week losses as they seek their first victories of the 2025 season.
Team Overview
Blackville-Hilda enters the contest with a 0-1 record, having fallen 22-6 to Barnwell in their season opener on August 21. Ranked 7,729 nationally, 149 in South Carolina, and eighth in their class, the Trojans have scored just six points while allowing 22. Their early-season struggles have highlighted areas for improvement on both sides of the ball.
Edisto, meanwhile, also comes off a tough start, dropping their first game 42-8. Nationally ranked 10,353, 191 in the state, and 27th in their class, the Warriors have struggled to find offensive rhythm and defensive consistency early in the season.
Scoring Averages and Comparisons
Through one week, Edisto slightly edges Blackville-Hilda in scoring, averaging eight points per game compared to six for the Trojans. Both teams have yet to establish dominance in league play, and each will be eager to take control early in this matchup.
Common Opponents
Both squads have Barnwell and Denmark-Olar on their schedules. Blackville-Hilda has faced Barnwell already, while Edisto is set to play them on October 24. Neither team has had much success against shared opponents yet, leaving plenty of questions about how they’ll perform head-to-head.
Outlook
With both teams seeking their first win of the season, Friday night’s matchup could set the tone for the rest of the campaign. Edisto will aim to rebound from last week’s heavy defeat, while Blackville-Hilda looks to build momentum after a slow start. Fans can expect a hard-fought contest with plenty of energy as these South Carolina rivals clash.
