(Football Goal Post - KIWA Staff Photo)Cedar Falls, Iowa (RI) — Second-ranked West Sioux takes on No. 10 North Linn Thursday afternoon in the UNI-Dome with a trip to the Class A state championship game on the line.
West Sioux enters the semifinal matchup at 11-0, while North Linn is 10-1 and riding a six-game winning streak. Falcons coach Ryan Schwiesow says the Lynx are a quick and athletic team.
Schwiesow says North Linn also brings an aggressive defense to the field.
The Falcons will look to slow down the Lynx’s spread offense.
West Sioux is led by Braylon Lopez, who has accounted for more than 2,400 yards of total offense and 43 touchdowns this season. North Linn coach Jared Collum says containing Lopez will be a major challenge.
Collum says the Lynx will need to be successful in all three phases of the game.
The winner advances to next week’s Class A state championship game at the UNI-Dome.
