Rebels shutout by Wildcats

A loss by any other name is still a loss.

Nevertheless, in the eyes of Coach Hockensmith, Friday night’s 29-0 loss to Gallatin County is just a bump in the road. Following the team’s defeat in Warsaw, the coach told his players to “stay focused on the big picture.” The coach was referring to the upcoming district schedule which the team will begin in week five versus DeSales.

Sometimes things are easier said than done. For the players they will have to bounce back Friday night when the team travels to Henry County.

The Rebels fell behind 1-0 in the first half and Walton-Verona added another goal in the second to win 2-0. The Rebels had some scoring chances throughout the game but were not able to capitalize.

The Rebels then returned home on Thursday night when they played Scott County. The Cardinals defeated the Rebels 4-1.
