GHS Football went from facing the #3 team in the state to the number #2 on Oct. 4th, to the undefeated team from Howard, SD in 9A Football on Oct. 11th.
“One fumble, two interceptions and the inability to stop their high-powered offense led to the outcome,” said Coach Jerry Weiland. “Several injuries have limited us to having only 16 players dress for the game.”
However, it wasn’t all doom and gloom. In the third quarter, GHS pulled out a 66-yard run for a touchdown and follow up two-point conversion, and Weiland said that we can take that as a real feather in our cap, as not many teams have been able to even make a dent in Howard’s armor.
“Howard has only given up three other touchdowns this entire season, prior to our game with them,” he said.
The last regular game of the season is going to be hosted this week at the Garretson Athletic Complex against Chester, and is also senior appreciation night. A free will donation spaghetti tailgate supper will be hosted by the American Legion Post. 23 Auxiliary before the game.
