Shelby have had a week off and are no doubt ready to get back on the field. They and Darby go head to head on Saturday at 1:00 PM in their first playoff game of the year. Shelby have bulldozed their previous four opponents, so Darby might have their hands full.
Shelby might be getting used to good results now that the squad has seven wins in a row. They took their match against Great Falls Central/Montana School for the Deaf & Blind two weeks ago by a conclusive 34-0 score. Followers of Shelby probably expected little less of the squad in a season in which they have collected six blowout victories.
Meanwhile, after a disappointing two points in their last matchup, Darby made sure to put some points up on the board against St. Ignatius last Friday. Everything went Darby's way against St. Ignatius as they made off with a 56-28 victory. The rankings were on Darby's side, but they didn't forecast quite such a lopsided result.
Their wins bumped Shelby to 7-0 and Darby to 5-3. Since neither squad is a stranger to landslide victories this season, you'd better bet it will be hard-fought showdown.
