Cedar Valley Tops Bridge City 20 - 8Perfect playing conditions and a fantastic football field were the backdrop as the Cedar Valley Vikings bested the Bridge city Knights 20 - 8 Saturday in Ottumwa, Iowa. The Knights (1 - 3) are first year members of the North American Football League (NAFL), which consists of 120 Semi-Pro or Amateur Adult teams Nation wide. Any team searching for the recipe for success at this level of football is well advised to follow the example of the Bridge City Knights organization. The Ottumwa home field, Schafer Stadium, sports arguably the best grass playing surface at this level of football. The knights management and staff, including owners that play themselves, represent absolutes in organization and sportsmanship. Any club lucky enough to compete with Bridge City will walk away an improved team, win or lose.
The Vikings, now 2 - 1 on the season, look forward to hosting the Knights at home on September 19th. In the mean time, Cedar Valley will spend this week preparing for an always tough rematch with the Iowa Eagles. The Vikes travel the short distance to Webster City on August 1st to face the Eagles in a 4:00 p.m. Kickoff. |
