The teams met earlier in the season, where Brookfield dominated Law in a non-conference matchup on September 13, 2024, with a final score of 41-14. In that game, Brookfield’s defense held Law’s offense in check, while their own high-powered offense led the charge.

Game Preview
With Brookfield coming off an undefeated regular season, they are clearly the favorites in this matchup. However, Law has shown resilience and could be a formidable opponent in the postseason.
