When, where: 7 p.m. Friday at Schroeder Field, Kelso
Records: Kelso (3-1, 2-0), Fort Vancouver (2-2, 0-1); 3A GSHL league game
Game notes: Both teams are trying to bounce back from tough losses last week. … Kelso managed only 22 yards of total offense in a loss to Union … Prior to the loss to Union, Kelso had played very stingy defense, holding first three opponents to nine total points. … Forcing turnovers had been the Hilanders strong suit. … Fort had a very difficult time containing Prairie’s passing attack last week. They hope to fair better agaisnt Kelso’s ground attack. … Fort QB Richard Vansiclen has passed for 535 yards and four TDs. But he’s also thrown four interceptions. … Jordan Vela has rushed for 403 yards.
The Columbian’s take: Kelso will be motivated to get its offense going after last week’s debacle. But it’s the Hilanders’ defense that should concern the Trappers. They had a hard time getting much going early against Prairie. It won’t be easier against Kelso. PICK: Kelso
