Winner football team will play Clark/Willow Lake in the first round of the football playoffs on Thursday, Oct. 21 in Winner. The game will start at 7 p.m.
Winner enters the game undefeated with an 8-0 record this season. The Warriors are the No. 1 seed in Class 11B.
Winner football coach Trent Olson says Clark/Willow Lake is a battle tested team. They have beaten the No. 4 and No. 6 teams in Class 11B this season. “They create a lot of big plays on offense. They run a lot of perimeter plays and misdirection plays. They love to throw the ball down the field looking for the home run,” said Olson. “Defensively, they are super aggressive up front. We will have to prevent penetration,” said Olson.
