Treynor’s not looking past Missouri Valley game

The (6-1, 3-1) Treynor Cardinals sit almost locked in at the number 2 spot for District 8 and the playoffs. The Cardinals are coming off a resounding 40-9 victory over Shenandoah. It was after a crushing 49-0 defeat against Underwood. However, Head Coach Jeff Casey was proud of how his team responded in their game with Shenandoah.

Everything clicked for the Treynor offense and defense last Friday. Quarterback Ben Casey went 23-36, 213 yards, and 3 touchdowns. Running back Danny Kinsella had 14 carries, 51 yards, and a score.

The real highlight of the game was the defensive showing for Treynor. They forced 3 turnovers, scored a defensive touchdown, and only allowed 160 total yards. It was a showing that Coach Casey was pleased with.

Now the Cardinal’s eyes shift to the (1-6, 0-4) Missouri Valley Big Reds, a team that has struggled to find its rhythm. Even against a team that is winless in district play, Coach Casey isn’t overlooking the matchup.

Coach Casey wants to see consistency with his Treynor squad and to make sure the fundamentals are covered.

The Treynor and Missouri Valley matchup starts at 7:00 pm.
