Tonganoxie never trailed in its 43-8 home win over Eudora in a battle between two area teams. The Chieftains jumped out to a 21-0 lead at the half and never looked back, improving their record to 3-0 to start the year. Eudora’s lone score came in the third quarter with a 67-yard touchdown pass from Zeke Reazin to Silas Etter. The 2-point conversion was a connection between Reazin and Sloan Hayden. THS ...
The blueprint on how to stop Kansas’ offense is out, even if the thought of that sentence seemed preposterous just eight days ago. KU’s rushing attack was stymied in a 29-24 loss to West Virginia Saturday afternoon at David Booth Kansas Memorial Stadium. The Jayhawks ran for just 142 yards in the Big 12 opener, which took place one week after Khalil Herbert and Pooka Williams Jr. combined for 308 yards in a ...
Despite coming off its first regular-season loss since 2016, it was still business as usual for the Free State football team. After a three-and-out on the game’s opening possession, the Firebirds scored on eight straight drives to close out the first half. The game was never in doubt after that, as Free State rolled past Shawnee Mission North for a 59-14 win Friday night at FSHS. “This is nice to get an ...
It has been quite some time since Free State’s football team experienced a regular-season loss. Prior to last week’s defeat at Olathe East, the Firebirds hadn’t dropped a regular-season decision since a 34-21 loss at Park Hill on Sept. 16, 2016. FSHS rattled off eight consecutive wins after that. It remains to be seen how this year’s team, led by first-year head coach Kevin Stewart, will respond this ...
Lawrence High head coach Mike Murphy had no doubt that his team would respond. After all, the Lions have had to do so in nearly every match this season. After a pair of offsides stalled Lawrence’s offense on two different scoring opportunities, Wyandotte evened things with a counter attack with 13:03 left in the first half. Rather than falter, though, Lawrence bounced back with three consecutive scores to ...
Nothing changed about the offensive game plan in Week 3, at least according to Kansas head coach Les Miles. Of course, we are all calling Miles’ bluff considering KU’s offense looked drastically different in its 48-24 win at Boston College last Friday. The Jayhawks scored six offensive touchdowns against the Eagles after doing so three times through the first two weeks. Kansas averaged 7.9 yards per play ...
