Kansas City, Mo. ? Hard-luck Baker University will be hoping for a change in fortune when it tangles with winless Avila today in Heart of America Athletic Conference football.

Kickoff will be 1 p.m. at Rockhurst High.

Baker (1-6) has lost three games by five or fewer points and bowed to No. 6-ranked MidAmerica Nazarene in overtime Saturday.

Avila (0-6) is coming off a bye week. The Eagles rank last in the league in total offense and next-to-last in total defense.
