Warriors, Lions tangle in 4A showdown
The resurgent Linn-Mar football team has gotten off to a 3-0 start, but the Lions will face their stiffest test of the season Friday night when the Washington Warriors invade Linn-Mar Stadium for a Class 4A non-district game.
Kickoff is scheduled for 7:15 p.m. on KCRG 1600-AM/107.5 FM.
Linn-Mar senior quarterback Ryan Schmidt has rushed for 152 yards and seven touchdowns this season. He also has passed for 240 yards and two touchdowns by hitting 19 of 35 passes.
Speedster Perrion Scott has carried the ball 26 times for 287 yards. He scored three touchdowns in the first quarter last week in an easy win at Clinton.
Logan Benter, a running back and linebacker for the Lions, missed last week's game with a leg injury, but is expected back this week.
