The Griswold Tigers (0-4, 0-1) will travel to face the Sidney Cowboys (1-2) in an 8-Man District 7 football contest on Friday night and we’ll have the game on KJAN. The Tigers will be searching for their first win of the season and are coming off a district loss to East Mills last week. Griswold Head Coach Andy Everett said they have seen some good things from the team and injuries have made the last couple of outings difficult. One guy the Tigers have leaned on is senior quarterback Derek Mueller and Coach Everett has been impressed by his leadership.

The Sidney Cowboys have spread the ball around to multiple backs this season and Coach Everett expects the same tough run game they always expect out of the Cowboys.

Sidney Head Coach Donnie Sears said they have been impressed by the number of guys that have stepped up to help the offense on different nights. He said with multiple guys capable the coaching staff just has to search for the hot hand.

Sears knows the Tigers are similar with a run first mentality but he knows his defenders will need to be ready for misdirection.

The Tigers and Cowboys are set for a 7:00pm kickoff in Sidney. Chris Parks and Jim Field will have the call with the Dvorak Tire and Service pregame starting at 6:30pm. You can catch the game on-air, online, or watch the game on KJANTV.
