Recap: Velva vs. Stanley

Stanley had home field advantage when it faced off against Des Lacs-Burlington 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. Stanley had a rough outing against Velva, losing 52 - 0. Stanley wasn't expected to win (the team is 20 ranks behind in the state), but no defeat is easy.

Stanley's record fell to 3-4 after the loss. The defeat is only the most recent in a discouraging three-game streak. The win was just another feather in the cap for the still undefeated Velva, who sits at 7-0.

The two teams have their sights set on raising those records in their upcoming games. Velva will square off against Bishop Ryan this Friday at 7:00 PM. Velva has whitewashed its last five opponents, so Bishop Ryan might have its hands full. As for Stanley, it will look to defend its home turf against Berthold/Our Redeemer's Christian/North Shore this Friday at 7:00 PM. Stanley has now seen its scores steadily decline over the past three games, a trend the team needs to reverse pronto to avoid another defeat.
