Iowa Preps dives inside the 8-Man football ranks. We look ahead to week two, games to watch, and look back at what stood out to us from other the weekend. Get insider coverage that you will not find anywhere else now!
Game of the Week: Newell-Fonda 34, West Bend-Mallard 18
Newell-Fonda may have started off the season slow in 2014 but that was not the case here. They battled with another elite program in 8-Man and proved that they could put points on the board and defend well. A few holes had to be filled over the off-season but the Mustangs remain as the favorite in 8-Man.
.....................................................................................
What else stood out:
Game: Ar-We-Va, Westside 72, St. Mary's, Remsen 42
Why: Their playmakers offensively at Ar-We-Va could make 2015 a special year for this club.
Game: Glidden-Ralston 48, Remsen-Union 0
Why: Dominating in all facets of the game.
Game: Graettinger-Terril/Ruthven-Ayrshire 32, Northwood-Kensett 18
Why: A great effort defensively from a Graettinger-Terril/Ruthven-Ayrshire team that will be tough to beat.
Game: West Central, Maynard 47, Clarksville 26
Why: Reloading is the name of the game here.
Game: Stanton 24, Guthrie Center 0
Why: Their defense is not getting the credit that it deserves.
