Coach Jeff Zittergruen comments: “Our team got off to a quick start against South Tama on Friday, scoring on our first drive and then recovering the kickoff and we were able to get another score. Offensively we ran the ball well and were able to mix in some play action with our passing game. It was a good night to have a lot of our guys contribute on both sides of the ball.”

“This upcoming Friday night we have an awesome opportunity to host against a good football team in Williamsburg. We look to continue to have another good week of practice in getting better as we prepare for the playoffs. Friday will also be a special night as we honor our seniors!”
