It’s not here in the East Valley, but Friday night’s game between Glendale Cactus and Peoria is one to keep an eye on.Peoria is ranked No. 3 and Cactus No. 4 in the latest 4A-I Tribune rankings, a flip-flop of last week. Peoria has blown out everyone it’s played - albeit against weaker opponents - while the Cobras needed to rally from a 17-point halftime deficit to beat Tucson Canyon del Oro two weeks ago and then slipped past Sandra Day O’Connor last week.Both teams have fine running backs (Peoria’s is Jamal Miles, Cactus’ is Mike Brown) and this always-heated contest is definitely a statement game.The guess from here: Peoria 27, Cactus 17.
