The regular season was a success, but the real challenge begins now, in the postseason. This Friday North County (7-2) takes on Festus (4-5) in the first playoff game of the year. North County has been tearing up the end zone with big points in its last three contests.
North County can now show off six landslide victories after its game last week. It put the hurt on Fredericktown last week with a conclusive 70 - 19 victory. At 51 points, that marked North County's largest margin of victory so far this year.
Meanwhile, Festus can no longer brag about a perfect record at home. It suffered a painful 34 - 10 defeat to Poplar Bluff last week. The blowout was painful but not necessarily a surprise as Poplar Bluff is ranked 23rd in the state, many places higher than Festus.
The last time they met, North County walked away with a 31 - 21 win. Will it come out on top again? We'll soon find out.
