The Neodesha Bluestreaks are looking to continue their strong start to the season as they take on rival Cherryvale on the road in a Tri-Valley League Week 2 showdown.

 

Neodesha is coming off a dominant Week 1 win over Galena, as the offense scored four touchdowns in the first half while the defense kept the Bulldogs out of the end zone.

 

Coach West says he was proud of how his team responded to adversity, not only with the recent unrelenting heat, but also on defense, as the Bluestreaks stalled out several Galena drives and kept the Bulldogs from gaining much confidence offensively. 

 

West knows rivalry games bring out the best in both teams and says the Bluestreaks will need to match Cherryvale’s intensity and physicality when the two teams meet Friday night. 

 

Neodesha snapped an eight-game losing streak to Cherryvale last year with a 33-6 win in Week 1, and the Bluestreaks will look to extend their own winning streak Friday night against a familiar opponent.
