Olathe have been homebodies their last two matches, but they are heading out on Friday. They will square off against Grand Valley at 7:00 PM. Neither Olathe nor Grand Valley could muster much offensive firepower in their last games, so look to the defense to decide this one.
After soaring to 42 points the game before, Olathe faltered in their game last Friday. They fell to Meeker 7-14. That makes it the first time this season Olathe have let down their home crowd.
Meanwhile, it's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 0-41, which was the final score in Grand Valley's tilt against Paonia. The state rankings had actually given Grand Valley a slight edge heading into the game, making this hurt that much more.
Olathe took their contest against Grand Valley the last time the two teams met by a conclusive 47-14 score. The rematch might be a little tougher for Olathe since the team won't have home-field advantage. Watch the game and check back on MaxPreps to see if the change in venue makes a difference.
