The CAM Cougars (6-0, 4-0) are heading to the stretch run of what has been a very strong season on the gridiron. The next test for the Cougars is a visit from the Coon Rapids-Bayard Crusaders (3-3, 1-3) this Friday night in Anita. CAM Head Coach Barry Bower said his team knows what their overall goals are but they know in order to achieve the large goals they need to focus on each game.

CAM has had an outstanding ground game, led by senior Lane Spieker who has gobbled up 1,675 yards and a staggering 35 touchdowns on the ground. Spieker has continually been able to put up strong numbers despite opponents trying to gameplan to slow him down and Coach Bower said that’s a credit to the whole team.

Coon Rapids-Bayard has been led on offense by quarterback Tanner Oswald who has thrown for 1,103 yards and 12 touchdowns with no interceptions. CR-B Head Coach Chris Mohr said the Crusaders just need to be more consistent.

Coach Mohr said they will need to get some pressure into the backfield in order to have a chance to slow down Spieker.
