The Cherryvale Chargers are preparing for a rivalry clash with Neodesha tomorrow, with head coach Harry Hester looking to build on his team’s strong Week 1 performance.

 

Cherryvale is coming off a season-opening victory over Fredonia, taking control early with a bruising opening touchdown drive led by the offensive line that helped set the tone for the game.

 

The Chargers took a 30-0 lead into halftime, putting together a scoring drive late in the half with limited time on the clock. Hester praised his team’s adaptability and retention of the playbook in Year 2 of his second stint as the Chargers’ head coach. 

 

Coming into the game, Hester knows the Bluestreaks will have a strong defensive scheme in place and says his team will need good discipline and communication to break through.

 

After dropping their first game to Neodesha since 2015 last year, Cherryvale will look to get back on top of the rivalry and start the season 2-0 for the first time since 2016.
