(Griswold, IA) — Griswold hopes there is no hanging heads after tonight’s game as the Tigers look to upset Fremont Mills, coverage on 96.5 FM KSOM.
The Knights have won all 6 games between the two teams by an average score of 62-6. Griswold has not scored a point against Fremont Mills the last three seasons. BUT. Fremont Mills is coming off a losing season and is younger this year than in the past. Griswold did lose last week 44-24 to Sidney but Tigers Head Coach Seth Lembke saw some improvements
Fremont Mills is led by Junior QB Sawyer Forney who has thrown for 435 yards, 8 TD, and 4 INT. At Running Back, Junior Jonathan Ekpai came down with an injury so the Knights have turned to Junior J.W. Linkenhoker who ran for 173 yards and 2 TD last week in a 60-22 win over Stanton. Lembke was impressed on film
The Tigers must come together and forget about the past history and the past three weeks; Lembke says there is a lot of football left
Griswold is led by QB Bode Wyman who has somewhat similar numbers to Forney just not as many touchdowns — 426 yards passing, 3 TDs, 2 INT — and he’s thrown it to 9 different recievers Fremont Mills Head Coach Greg Ernster says you have to account for the Tiger passing game
Fremont Mills went 4-5 last year, this program is not used to going under .500 — it was the first losing season for the Knights in over 14 years. Ernster says his kids are motivated this year to turn it around
