The Oskaloosa Indians football team hosts Knoxville Friday night (9/3) at 7:30 at Statesmen Community Stadium. The Indians are out to stay undefeated after last week’s 35-14 win at Ottumwa; while Knoxville wants to bounce back after a 41-0 loss to Newton in their opener. Osky Coach Brett Doud said this about senior quarterback Keaton Flaherty’s performance in the Ottumwa game. (Completed 18 of 30 passes for 222 yards and three touchdowns; and rushed for one touchdown)
“Keaton played a strong game . But you’re going to hear me say over and over again this year: Keaton had a strong game because the O line had a strong game. And the O line looked good because the receivers were getting the job done and the tailbacks were getting the job done. If we have one guy not get their job done, it makes all the difference in the world.”
