Playoff time is here, and Tipton and Sweet Springs/Malta Bend are set to clash on Friday at 7:00 PM. The stakes are high as both teams are all in, each fighting to extend its postseason success.
Tipton might be getting used to good results now that the squad has three wins in a row. They came out on top against Santa Fe by a score of 32-20 last Friday. This was a playoff match, so the win was all the more important for Tipton (and all the more bitter for Santa Fe).
Meanwhile, four stomps in ten total games is nothing to scoff at, and that exactly where Sweet Springs/Malta Bend stand after their most recent contest. They took their game against Salisbury by a conclusive 34-6 score. Sweet Springs/Malta Bend were expected to win, but the margin was definitely larger than the state rankings had forecast.
Their wins lifted both teams to an identical 5-5. The Sweet Springs/Malta Bend defense got after the quarterback against Salisbury to the tune of five sacks, so Tipton's offensive line better have put in some good practice this past week in preparation for the matchup.
