West Branch 27 Turkey Valley 20 West Branch scored 20 unanswered points against the Turkey Valley Trojans and came away with a 27-20 victory in the second round of the playoffs in a game played at Turkey Valley. The Trojans dominated early play and built a 20-7 lead early in the second quarter, but West Branch scored before the end of the first half and at intermission it was 20-14 in favor of Turkey Valley. The Bears tied the score late in the third quarter, but missed the opportunity to take the lead when they muffed the PAT attempt. The Trojans were unable to put together a sustained drive in the second half. With the score tied 20-20 with about 8 minutes left to play, the Trojans were faced with a 4th and 2 at about the 45 yard line of West Branch and elected to punt the football away. The punt just barely made it into the end zone and was brought out to the 20 where West Branch put together a nearly 6 minute drive and scored what proved to be the game winning touchdown with 2:14 left to play. West Branch went primarily on runs up the middle and controlled the line of scrimmage in putting together the game winning drive. With all its time outs left the Trojans started inside their own 20 with just a little over 2 minutes to work with. Turkey Valley who relied almost exclusively on the run during its successful campaign was forced to go to the passing game. They moved the ball through the air about as well as they have all season, but as they got inside the 40 of West Branch the clock was ticking down and twice on a series they were forced to kill the clock with incomplete passes. Faced with a 4th and 3, The Trojans had a pass play go incomplete. Turkey Valley ends its season at 8-3, while West Branch now faces Alburnett a 13-10 winner over Wapsie Valley in the quarterfinals of the playoffs. We will have several pictures, video highlights and will talk with a couple of players and coaches about the great season enjuoyed by the Turkey Valley Trojans 1A Playoff Pairings |

nice runs on crucial downs to keep
scoring drives alive. The offensive line
did a good job of blocking again.
Defensively- The front defensive line
played very well. Luke Kuennen, Josh
Hansmeier, Brian Schmitt, Marshall
Rosenbaum and Dalton Hackman all

of Dave Balik, Jordan Mitchell, Jordan
Schmitt and Ben Novotny did a great
job of tackling and playing pass
defense. The whole defensive unit did
