SHANNON EARHART WILL JOIN US SOON WITH THE WILD CARD GAME. BUT FIRST WE ARE GOING TO GET RIGHT TO OUR GAME OF THE WEEK AS WE BEGIN OUR MARCH TO THE DOME. WEEK ONE, WE GO TO THE BATTLE FOR WEST DES MOINES JEFF DUBROF STANDING BY LIVE. AND JEFF, THIS GAME ONCE AGAIN LIVING UP TO THE HYPE. YEAH, SCOTT IT RIGHT RIGHTFULLY CALLED FRIDAY NIGHT HYPE. THIS GAME WAS UNBELIEVABLE. TWO TEAMS THAT ALWAYS PLAY ONE ANOTHER CLOSE. AND IN THE 2025 EDITION OF THE BATTLE OF WEST DES MOINES, IT WAS NO DIFFERENT. VALLEY TAKING ON DOWLING CATHOLIC, THEY PLAYED TWICE. LAST YEAR. THEY SPLIT THE SERIES, BUT VALLEY WON THE GAME IN THE DOME LAST YEAR. THE MAROONS WOULD STRIKE FIRST IN THIS GAME AT THE GOAL LINE, KNOCKING ON THE DOOR, AND IT’S IAN MIDDLETON DECIDING TO BREAK IT DOWN. HE SCAMPERS INTO THE BIG BOX AS DOWLING TAKES A SEVEN NOTHING LEAD IN THE FIRST. VALLEY WOULD RESPOND. ON THE ENSUING DRIVE, THEY GOT INTO THE RED ZONE BUT COULDN’T GET INTO THE END ZONE. THEY WOULD HAVE TO SETTLE FOR THREE INSTEAD. IT’S 7 TO 3 AS WE HEAD TO THE SECOND QUARTER, TIGERS FIRST TOUCHDOWN CAME IN THE SECOND QUARTER. VALLEY IN THE RED ZONE. DRAKE DEGROAT FINDS FUTURE LOUISVILLE CARDINAL JADEN MCGREGORY ON THE QUICK SLANT. IT’S TEN SEVEN. DOWLING WOULD GET A FIELD GOAL OF THEIR OWN TO END THE HALF. WE’D HEAD TO THE LOCKERS TIED AT TEN. LET’S GO TO THE SECOND HALF WHERE THE ACTION WAS FANTASTIC. DRAKE DEGROAT GOT THIS THING STARTED OUT ON A BANG. IT WAS THIRD AND LONG AND WATCH THIS YOUNG MAN JUST ESCAPE PRESSURE. UNBELIEVABLE. HE’LL TAKE IT, TUCK IT, RUN. AND HE IS IN VALLEY TAKES A 1710 LEAD. HE WOULD BE TIED AT 17 IN THE FOURTH QUARTER. FOUR MINUTES TO GO AT THE 18 YARD LINE. CONLEY HANIE SPLITS THE UPRIGHTS WITH A 36 YARDER. IT’S 2217 20 TO 19 AFTER VALLEY HAD TO TAKE A SAFETY IN THE SHADOW OF THEIR OWN END ZONE ON A PUNT. DOWLING WITH A CHANCE JOEY HAS THE BALL PICKED OFF BY DAN ALTMORE JUNIOR. AND THAT WOULD BE IT. DOWLING HOLDS ON HER VALLEY, HOLDS ON AND AN ABSOLUTE CLASSIC. 2219 YOUR FINAL VALLEY, YOUR CHAMPIONS OF WEST DES MOINES. AMAZING FEELING. WE CAME OUT ALL WEEK. WE PREPARED FOR IT.

VERY NEXT DRIVE SOUTHEAST. POLK IS GOING TO HAVE A LITTLE BOBBLE HERE. FUMBLES IT AWAY. WILL MORRIS, THE CENTENNIAL LINEBACKER, IS ABLE TO POUNCE ON IT.
