Game Recap
The River View Panthers would win the game 26-13 and went 4-0 in the EWAC's Eastern Conference and a 7-1 record overall. The EWAC's top Western and Eastern Division teams will play each other in a few weeks. The loss drops the Columbia-Burbank Coyotes to 4-3 overall and 2-1 in the EWAC East.
"Burbank is a long-time Rival of RVHS. It is always good to come away with this victory, especially when the EWAC-East League Championship is on the line. Our guys from Finley are tough physical athletes, and we continually prepare for tough games and environments- it is part of our culture," said River View Head Coach, Kris Welch.
According to Coach Welch, This is only the second time in RVHS [River View High School] history that our program has won back-to-back league championships the last time was 1989 & 1990 (33 years ago).
