The Eureka Tornado junior high football team beat the Neodesha Bluestreaks 48-31 last Thursday, Oct. 10 in Neodesha to improve their record to 4-2 on the season. The game, which seemed to last forever due to the scoring, began at 4:30 p.m. instead of the customary 6 p.m. start time to which both teams were accustomed. This may have contributed to the somewhat sloppy nature of the game, especially in the first half.
The Tornadoes kicked off to begin the game and held the Bluestreak offense in check, forcing them to turn the ball over on downs. Eureka took over on the Bluestreak 34 yardline but promptly threw an interception, one of four turnovers committed by the Tornadoes in the first half.
