    Grinnel 6 Pella 0 2:00 left Pella with 5 turnovers and 3 personal fouls. Hard to win doing that.

    I would agree. I think Pod B is right behind though with: LC Harlan Ballard Carlisle

    3rd Round Playoff Games

    I have had two children that attended American Rivers Conf schools and participated in sports, so I’ve been to almost every college in this state. Dordt and NW are both as legit as the Simpson’s and Luther’s of the world. Iowa is fortunate to have as many quality institutions as they do. I hope...

    3a playoff games

    I don’t think anyone is saying DCG is helpless. The point I tried to make is that they aren't quite the team they were early in the season before losing some main contributors. Carlisle will definitely have their hands full. DCG’s defense is very strong. No secret this game will come down to how...

    3a playoff games

    I don’t see Xavier running away with the title. Xavier is probably the favorite, but could certainly see them getting knocked off as well. Now, I’m not saying they won’t win it, but there are several really good teams that could win it. I see several real dogfights coming up in the round of 16.

    3a playoff games

    Will be interesting to see what happens. I think at the beginning of the season DCG was a top team, but injuries have decimated them. I suppose they kept their top spot because they never lost. They will have their hands full with Carlisle. If DCG can’t bottle up that rushing attack then it will...

    Non-district games

    Have no idea what Xavier’s roster size is this year, but I remember watching them in the dome in the past years and they had such a big roster. Was impressive. They looked like they had double the players of the other teams, exaggerated of course. Is understandable how they can reload each year.

    Non-district games

    That year Grinnell has a varsity squad full of sophomores, so you probably faced what was left. They were extremely young that year.

    Thanks ISUChip for compiling that. Some excellent games in there.

    Non-district games

    Agreed. You don’t lose a stud like that and not have an impact. Pella will still be very salty though. Vast majority of starters are back. Glad Harlan is playing Grinnell! Should be a great game. Is probably fun for Harlan to get to play some teams they don’t normally see.

    Non-district games

    Pella AD tweeted that: week 1: Pella @ DCG week 2: Harlan @ Pella Wow. Two great games. I’m curious how the AD’s are going about trying to get games and how difficult it is to find opponents. Can they schedule teams in other classes? Could create some fun local interest games. I am surprised...

    Friday, Nov. 8 2nd Round Scores & Comments

    Solon 24 Pella 0 Pella fumbled on first drive. Solon went down and scored and have completely had their way since. Solon is dominating this game. And.....Aaron Downs went down with injury and looks to be out of game.

    This is kinda funny since he didn’t play or played sparingly in several games this year due to injury.

    Friday 1st Round Playoffs Scores and Comments

    Pella 24 Independence 6 Pella D was the story. Not sure if Indee even got a 100 yards on offense. Pella controlled the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. Indee got points on kickoff TD return. Pella's Aaron Downs has to be one of the hardest guys to bring down in this state. He was...

    Should Perry consider dropping football?

    I watched a playoff game that Perry was in just 8 years ago. They had a pretty good team that year. They are going through a tough stretch now, but killing the football team doesn't strike me as a great idea. Where do you stop this? Do you nix a volleyball team because they are winless? Do you...

    3a pairings for playoffs

    Ummm... not sure where this came from. Did I even come close to saying they will make the dome? I am a Pella guy and I would be very surprised if they make the dome. My blinders aren’t that strong. I was only commenting on the Grinnell-Pella game. I have no idea if they will beat Independence...

    3a pairings for playoffs

    Good grief. I think you need to step away from the ledge. Was a good, tough, hard-hitting game Friday night. Both teams played hard. Grinnell made some mistakes and Pella capitalized on them. That’s what happens in sports sometimes. Not sure you are helping your cause with trying to disparage...
