Girard (3-5) squares off against Iola (3-5) this Thursday at 7:00 PM. Girard might be feeling good about this one after its surprising comeback last game.
Girard is still under.500 but has been making strides to fix that in its last two games. It got a somewhat close 12 - 8 victory over Anderson County two weeks ago. The win came about thanks to a strong surge after the third quarter to overcome a deficit of eight points. As for Iola, it simply didn't have it two weeks ago, losing 50 - 14 to Burlington.
The last time they met, Girard walked away with a 38 - 25 win. It was able to move the ball a lot more (352 yards compared to 244 yards), a gap Iola will be looking to close this time around. Can Girard repeat its success? We'll find out this Thursday.
