Mitchell had to kick off their season with an away game, and unfortunately wound up with a long bus ride home. They ended up on the wrong side of a painful 14-41 walloping at Valentine hands. Mitchell were down by 7-28 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Junior Morgan Mcginley, who rushed for 40 yards and 3 touchdowns, was a major factor in the success. This was the first contest for both squads, starting Mitchell off on the wrong foot at 0-1, while giving Valentine a 1-0 record.
Next week, Mitchell take on Southeast at 7:00 PM. As for Valentine, they will face of against Ogallala. Keep an eye on the score for this one : both teams put up some lofty point totals in their previous games, so things might heat up even more when they meet up next week.
