Paola will take on Basehor-Linwood in the third round of the playoffs on Friday. Both teams have allowed few points on average (Paola 6.9, Basehor-Linwood 12.1), so any points scored will be well earned.
Basehor-Linwood might be getting used to good results now that the squad has eight wins in a row. They captured a comfortable 31-14 win over Fort Scott. Basehor-Linwood's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but senior Dylan Mussett led the charge as he accumulated 206 passing yards and punched in 1 rushing TD. Senior Dylan Mussett has been one of their standout athletes in their past ten games.
Meanwhile, Paola earned some postseason bragging rights after a successful outing last week. Everything went their way against Tonganoxie as they made off with a 35-13 victory. Followers of Paola probably expected little less of the team in a season in which they have collected nine blowout victories.
Their wins lifted both teams to an identical 9-1. We'll see who bends and who breaks when these two typically dominant teams face off.
