West Burlington had home field advantage when it faced off against Washington two games ago, but the team wasn't able to capitalize. No surprise then that heading on the road didn't bring a better result. West Burlington simply didn't have it last week, losing 42 - 7 to Solon. The blowout was painful but not necessarily a surprise as Solon is ranked 4th in the state, many places higher than West Burlington.
The defeat brought West Burlington down to 2-6. The loss is only the most recent in a discouraging three-game streak. Solon kept its perfect season alive and rose to 8-0.
Both Solon and West Burlington will be guarding their home fields in their upcoming games. Solon will battle it out against Fairfield on Friday. Solon has blown out its past seven opponents, so Fairfield has its work cut out for it. Meanwhile, West Burlington will square off against Oskaloosa this Friday. After another low point total this last game, West Burlington has fallen into a real scoring funk its past three games; hopefully the team can find some way to reach the endzone more consistently.
