HCHS closes strong to deliver Rams first loss

Big plays key 38-14 victory as Cyclones grab share of second place in district

 GLENWOOD -- Harlan Community used a big-play offense, a bend-but-don’t-break defense and a strong finish Friday night to take down unbeaten Glenwood, 38-14, in a game that was much more competitive than the final score.
 Leading just 21-14 with 9:30 remaining, the seventh-ranked Cyclones responded with an 87-yard touchdown drive, a record-breaking ninth field goal by Ethan Knudson and a Josh Cheek pick-six to pull away late and climb to second place in Class 3-A, District 8.
 With only one week left in the regular season, Dallas Center-Grimes sits atop the district at 5-0, followed by HCHS and Glenwood at 4-1. All three teams are 7-1 overall.
 The Cyclones host A-D-M (3-5, 1-4) on Friday and could still claim the District 8 title with a win over the Tigers and a Glenwood win over DC-G.
