Football Game Preview: Velva vs. Hazen

Hazen will challenge Velva on the road on Saturday. Hazen will be strutting in after a victory while Velva will be stumbling in from a defeat.

Hazen put the finishing touches on their 3rd blowout victory of the season last Friday. They took their game against Killdeer by a conclusive 22-0 score. Hazen were expected to win, but the margin was definitely larger than the state rankings had forecast.

Meanwhile, after a dominant win in their contest two weeks ago, Velva were humbled. They had victory within their grasp but couldn't quite capture it as the team lost 34-35 to Bishop Ryan. Velva's loss signaled the end of their seven-game winning streak.

Hazen suffered a grim 7-40 defeat to Velva the last time the two teams met. The defeat knocked Hazen out of the playoffs, so expect them to come at Velva with a vengeful fire.
