Another big win for the Creighton Kodiak football team yesterday in Hague as they prevailed 24 to 12.

 

The Kodiaks were able to avenge a tough loss against Wakaw the previous week and this was a complete team victory with everything coming together on offense, defense and specialty teams.

 

One of the big factors in yesterday's game was when the Kodiaks recovered a kick deep in Hague's end which led to a touchdown and gave Creighton the momentum early.

 

The Kodiaks also dominated Hague physically and played one of their best defensive games in many years.

 

Head Coach Ryan Karakochuk had this to say about yesterday's win. " I thought we had a really good week of practise and we watched a lot of game film  coming into this game we were locked into what Hague was going to do. We knew exactly what plays they were going to run and our defense really shut the door. They played really hard as it was a very physical game. The two big differences were opponent and game planning from the previous week. I thought we were ready to go and we knew how big of a game this really was. If we wanted to make Provincials for the first time in a Southern Conference we had to win this game and I thought our guys did a really good job.

 

The Kodiaks were led offensively by Matt Lavis, Josh Trumbley and Kaleb Lycan  who all had majors. Rogan Hlady kicked three converts.

 

Creighton improves to 2-1 with both of their wins coming on the road which is the first time ever,  a Northern team has won two games on the road in the South.

 

The Kodiaks will now get a bye week and return to action on October the 3rd when they host Shellbrook.
