GREEN WAVE WIN!

That’s how you do it, Malden Green Wave!

The Green Wave came out strong and took down the Twin Rivers Lady Royals in straight sets:

FINAL: MALDEN 3 – 0 TWIN RIVERS

Set 1: 25–19
Set 2: 25–18
Set 3: 25–14

I didn’t quite make it in time to get my pregame prediction posted for this one… but that’s okay! 😂 I think we can all agree that as long as the Green Wave got the WIN, that’s what matters!

Congratulations, ladies! Keep rolling, keep competing, and keep making that Green Wave proud!

💚 GO GREEN WAVE! 💚
🌊 WAVE ROLL ON! 🌊

MALDEN vs. CARUTHERSVILLE

FRIDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL IS BACK IN MALDEN!

The Malden Green Wave welcome the Caruthersville Tigers to town for a big SEMO Conference district matchup and Homecoming 2026!

Friday, September 18, 2026
7:00 PM
Malden High School at The Swamp

THE NUMBERS
Malden: 1–2
19.3 points per game
32.7 points allowed per game
0–2 at home
Coming off a 60–0 loss to Hayti

Caruthersville: 2–1
38.7 points per game
28.7 points allowed per game
1–0 on the road
Coming off a 34–21 win over Scott City

The Green Wave also enter Friday looking to change the recent history between these two programs. The matchup history shows Caruthersville has won the last eight meetings, while Malden's last recorded win in the series came in 2016.

But this is 2026.

It's Homecoming.

It's Friday Night Football.

And the Green Wave get to defend their home field.

MY GAME PREDICTION

On paper, Caruthersville has the statistical advantage, particularly offensively. But rivalry games can play very differently from the numbers.

I'm expecting Malden to come out with considerably more energy than the previous week and keep this one competitive.

MY PICK:
MALDEN 28
CARUTHERSVILLE 27

GAME DAY IN MALDEN!

Tonight, the Malden Lady Green Wave are back on their home court as they take on the Clarkton Lady Reindeer!

At Malden High School
Tuesday, September 15, 2026
JV — 5:00 PM
Varsity — 6:30 PM
601 Burkhart Street, Malden, MO

THE MATCHUP

MALDEN LADY GREEN WAVE

Record: 8-1-3
Win %: 66.7%
Home: 3-0
Away: 4-0
Points/Match: 2.2
Points Allowed/Match: 0.6

CLARKTON LADY REINDEER

Record: 7-7
Win %: 50.0%
Home: 3-2
Away: 1-2
Points/Match: 1.4
Points Allowed/Match: 1.4

The numbers give Malden a clear statistical edge coming into tonight's matchup. Clarkton has had some recent struggles, including losses to Gideon and Crystal City, while Malden enters with a strong overall record.

TONIGHT'S PREDICTION

Malden Lady Green Wave 3
Clarkton Lady Reindeer 0

I’m calling for the Green Wave to protect home court and take this one in straight sets. The combination of Malden's 3-0 home record, stronger overall record, and much better points differential makes Malden the favorite tonight.

And there’s an added storyline:

Malden leads the all-time matchup 12-7, while Clarkton won the most recent meeting in 2025.

Tonight is a chance for the Lady Green Wave to start a new chapter in the rivalry.

PACK THE GYM. MAKE SOME NOISE.

GAME DAY PREDICTION!

Tonight the Malden Lady Green Wave travel to take on the Portageville Lady Bulldogs!

Monday, September 14, 2026
Portageville High School
Varsity — 6:30 PM

THE PREDICTION

MALDEN 3 — PORTAGEVILLE 1

I'm giving Malden the edge tonight with a 72% chance of winning.

Malden enters tonight 7-1-3 and has been playing strong volleyball all season. Portageville comes in at 6-6-1 and is coming off a tough 0-4-1 SEMO DFL tournament.

But there's one HUGE storyline...

Portageville has beaten Malden 11 straight times.

Could tonight finally be the night the Green Wave break the streak?

My projected score:
Set 1 — Malden 25-20
Set 2 — Portageville 25-23
Set 3 — Malden 25-19
Set 4 — Malden 25-21

LET'S BREAK THE STREAK!
GO GREEN WAVE!

BOOTHEEL PIGSKIN PICK’EM — 3 WEEKS IN THE BOOKS!

Three weeks of Southeast Missouri high school football are officially in the books, and the predictions are starting to speak for themselves!
After 47 games, Bootheel Pigskin Pick’em currently sits at:

36–11
76.6% WINNER-PICK ACCURACY

WEEK-BY-WEEK
WEEK 1:
13–4 — 76.5%
WEEK 2:
12–5 — 70.6%
WEEK 3:
11–2 — 84.6%

Week 3 was the strongest week so far, going 11–2 over 13 games!

This isn't about claiming to predict every score perfectly.

The goal is to look at the teams, matchups and everything available and try to figure out WHO is going to win.

There have been blowouts, close games, upsets and a few games that came down to the wire.

Some predictions have been right on the money. Others have been way off. That's high school football!
But that's what makes Bootheel Pigskin Pick’em fun.

Every Friday brings a new slate of games, new predictions and another chance to see how we stack up against the actual results.

Three weeks down...

WEEK 4 IS NEXT

Let's see if we can keep this thing rolling!
