The Kansas State High School Football playoff are underway!
Congratulations to the Wamego Red Raiders on their 1st round victory over Independence by a 42-14 count. Wamego moves on to a 2nd round matchup with McPherson. The Bullpups outlasted the Abilene Cowboys 41-20 on Friday night.
This week’s Carpet One of Manhattan Game of the Week features action from the 3A bracket. The Rock Creek Mustangs (8-1, 2 West) will defend their home turf against the Holcomb Longhorns (7-2, 7 West), a 12-7 winner over Marysville. Due to the possibility of thunderstorms along with Holcomb’s travel time, the game has been postponed and will kickoff at 11:00 am on Saturday, with the KanEquip pregame show at 10:30am. Troy Coverdale and AJ Shaw will have all the action.
The winner of the Rock Creek vs Holcomb game will play Scott City, who advanced after a field goal with :40 left propelled the Beavers to a 9-7 victory.
