Northwest Iowa — The regular season comes to a close Friday night. The play off field of 16 in each class of Iowa football will be set shortly after midnight. The Sheldon Orabs finish the regular season at home against Central Lyon George Little Rock while Boyden Hull Rock Valley with the district title wrapped up travel to Sioux Center.
The Orabs come into Friday night with a 5-3 season record and 2-2 district mark. The Lions are 4-4 with a 3-1 district record. Sheldon posted a road win over Okoboji last Friday while CL-G-LR won at home against Sioux Center.
Orab Head Coach Tyler Lloyd talks about being ready to play a physical game.
Turn over margin will be the biggest factor. After that it’s what happens on first down.
Despite the Orabs prolific passing game Lions Head Coach Curtis Eben feels the key to controlling the Sheldon offense is the running game.
Eben sees a lot of his team in the Orabs.

Brandt puts execution at the top of the list for the Nighthawks this week.
While the Nighthawks offense is well known Warriors Head Coach Tim Van Regenmorter is equally impressed with their defense.
