Flatonia vs. Louise

When: 7:30 p.m. Friday Where: Louise 2023 Records: Flatonia was 5-5. Louise was 6-5.

Of Note: Flatonia is looking for a bounce-back season after missing the postseason last year after making it to at least the second round in the previous eight seasons. The Bulldogs will be led by quarterback Beck Zimmerman, who was a part-time starter at the position last year. Keegan Green is an explosive back who will find the ball in his hands a lot. Brent Mascheck returns for his second year as head coach at Flatonia and is only two wins away from his 100th career victory as a head coach. He has switched up both the offense and defense schemes for Flatonia from what they ran last season in an attempt to better tailor what they have to the strengths of their players, Mascheck said. Louise returns four offensive and four defense starters from last year’s team including quarterback Conner Gonzalez who threw for 1,184 yards a year ago. They have a speedy running back in Jeric Melchor.
