The Kee football team rebounded from its second District 4 loss of the season suffered a week earlier by establishing itself early and often on the way to a 52-18 rout of Springville at home Friday, October 10. The Hawks made a statement with a touchdown on their first offensive play of the ballgame and never looked back on the way to pounding out nearly 400 rushing yards to fuel a 473-227 advantage in total yards.
Improving to a 5-2 overall record on the season, 3-2 in district play, the Hawks will hit the road for one of the greatest challenges on their schedule when they face undefeated and top-five rated Central Elkader this Friday, October 17. The Warriors have not scored fewer than 62 points in any of their games this season, posting a pair of 94-point outings on the way to outscoring their opponents by a 520-114 margin that includes a 68-0 romp at Central City this past Friday, October 10.
