Suggested Video




The Wabash Apaches will head out to face off against the Alexandria-Monroe Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Wabash can't be to happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Friday. They took a blow against Rochester, falling 42-0. The Apaches have struggled against the Zebras recently, as their game on Friday was their eighth consecutive lost matchup.

Meanwhile, Alexandria-Monroe blew past Wes-Del, posting a 41-12 win on the road. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Indiana football rankings (they are ranked 131st, while the Warriors are ranked 277th), the result on Friday wasn't entirely unexpected.

Brady Gast had an outrageously good game as he threw for 219 yards and three touchdowns while completing 72.7% of his passes, and also punched in a touchdown on the ground. Clayton Martin was in the mix as well, providing Alexandria-Monroe with two touchdowns touchdowns.

Wabash was dealt a bruising 42-0 defeat at the hands of Alexandria-Monroe when the teams last played back in August of 2023. Thankfully for Wabash, Carson Cuneo (who rushed for 128 yards and four touchdowns on only ten carries) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
