Battling a tough opponent in sloppy weather conditions, the NDSS Golden Hawks junior boys football team came up short in a 28-6 defeat at home to the KCVI Blues on Wednesday.
Still looking for their first win of the season, the Hawks matched up against a third ranked Blues team that had lost just once in three games played. KCVI’s defense proved to be too much for NDSS, coming up with a huge stop on their 25 yard line to close out the first half.
