There's high school football in the area tonight.
Fenimore is at River Valley for a non-conference matchup.
Here is River Valley coach Tyler McLean.
So kind of have this little crossover we got going here, but we're getting close to it here and at the same time.
So kind of look at the scores of this too.
I think that's a very open conference.
There's definitely teams that are having success right now and teams that are still feeling themselves out.
Once we get into the grind of it here,
I think it's going to be everybody's ball game each and every week.
How important is it this week to get a win?
I think for us, I think it's going to be a confidence thing for us.
Right now, I think we're really looking at, obviously, the record's not where we want it to be.
We're still a little bit young on our side of the ball.
Just getting that first win underneath our belt to kind of get that deep breath in and out for us.
And kind of the monkey off our back as well.
I think it'll be great for us.
And as we kind of progress forward.
Fenimore River Valley can be heard tonight on WRCO FM 100.9 in Richland Center, our game of the week at Prairie Duchenne tonight.
Richland Center takes on the Blackhawks.
It was coach Andrew Troxell.
So Prairie doesn't do a ton, but what they do, they do very, very well, you know, so that's it offensively, you know, and then defensively their system hasn't changed, you know, since I've been here, right?
And so there are areas that we feel like we can exploit, right?
But at the end of the day, it's going to come down to, you know, the physicality and the mentality.
when you go to perishing, that is certainly not an easy place to go and play.
And they're coming off a big win against Prescott.
And so the question this week will be, how do we respond after Potosi came in and did what they did to us?
Line Caster plays at Plattville, brought head Judah at Dodgeville in the Southwest Conference.
Scenic Bluffs, it's Royal at Neceda, Hillsborough at Bangor and Ithaca Weston travels to New Lisbon.
Coach Kyle Kelly talked this week about facing a passing team like the Rockets.
Like I said, if we can send pressure and get a solid blitz going, we should be able to shut down the passing game.
So you're going to get into
conference play right now and right now.
Yeah.
And so you're ready or not, here you go.
And, uh, you still feel your team has a good shot this year.
Yeah.
Like I said, our goal is still to be competitive in every game and make the playoffs.
And I still think we can achieve that goal.
In the six rivers, Potosi Castle at River Ridge, Peccatonica, our guy that I will grant, Black Hawk Warren at Bosquebell was Zika Steuben Seneca is at Riverdale.
Here's coach Jeff Johnson of the chieftains
was Zika Seneca Steuben.
They.
lost a lot of really good players last year.
But don't count that out because they've had tremendous history in the last 10 to 15 years, and they're going to be a battle.
What do you know about them, I guess, as far as the scouting report?
What makes them tough this year?
They're still wanting to spread a little bit of option, but I don't think they're as dedicated to the option as they used to be.
At least what we looked at, we only have one tape on them.
But there's out in what they do
Riverdale hosting Wasika Steuben Seneca.
