One of our 9Preps Game of the Week featured two rivals only six miles apart – The Strasburg Indians and the Bennett Tigers.
Friday’s contest marked the 48th meeting between the two schools, a series that dates back to 1961.
The eight-ranked Tigers (2A) came into the night with a 26-21 edge, but the top-ranked Indians (1A) have won the most recent matchup, a playoff game that knocked Bennett out in the playoffs and ended with Strasburg claiming their second straight 1A state title.
This week’s matchup was very one-sided, as the Indians rolled to a 32-8 victory on the Tigers home field.
