GHS Blue Dragons take a hard hit on the road

Date:

From Head Coach Jerry Weiland

GHS Football

            Friday 8-26-2022 the Blue Dragons traveled to Viborg to take on the Viborg-Hurley Cougars.  This year did not compare to the exciting overtime win in last yearā€™s contest.

             ā€œThe Cougars came out with an aggressive blitz package.  We met a team that was bigger, faster and more aggressive than we were,ā€ said Head Coach Jerry Weiland.  The Blue Dragons have a few nagging injuries and played without running back and linebacker Carson Clark. ā€œAnytime you sit a senior who is aggressive like Carson, it hurts the team. ā€œ

            Final score Viborg-Hurley 52, Garretson 0

Total team offense. Viborg-Hurley had 296, Garretson had -29.

            ā€œThis is a humbling game as expectations were much higher than Fridayā€™s performance,ā€ he said. ā€œGarretson hosts Hamlin this Friday under the lights in Garretson.  Also, it is parents night with the Booster Club Tailgate ahead of the game.ā€
