Leipsic is a perfect 5-0 against Hardin Northern since January of 2021 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Saturday. The Vikings just played yesterday, but they'll still head out to face the Polar Bears at 4:30 p.m.

Leipsic is leaving town to face Hardin Northern after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. The Vikings came up short against Riverdale on Friday, falling 55-30. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it four in a row.

Meanwhile, Hardin Northern took their game on Friday with ease, bagging a 64-25 win over Elgin. The matchup was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Polar Bears had established a 28-point advantage.

Leipsic strolled past Hardin Northern in their previous meeting back in December of 2024 by a score of 66-51. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Vikings since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
