Beating up on the 1-4A Conference’s also-rans have Prairie Grove poised for the playoffs again. Winning next week at first-place Gravette will mean more. The Tigers haven’t beaten a team with a winning record this year. A win over the Lions is the boost they need to propel them into the playoffs.

The Lincoln Wolves might be 0-6, but their stats show steady improvement. The team was ravaged by injuries and defections early in the season, and the Wolves’ passing game was nowhere to be found.
Last week, Lincoln had two touchdown passes (both from sophomore QB Casey Williams to senior WR Michael Hoops) in a home loss […]
The scoreboard might not have reflected it, but the Lincoln Wolves were inspired by the return of sophomore quarterback Casey Williams to the field in last Friday’s loss at Green Forest. Williams recently lost his stepfather in a tragic automobile accident.
Williams finally got Lincoln’s passing game going, finding Michael Hoops for an 8-yard touchdown — […]

Prairie Grove needed only defense and special teams to blank West Fork 37-0 last week. Expect all three phases to be clicking against winless Lincoln. I’m predicting 300 rushing yards from Prairie Grove’s Wing T offense, with halfback Seth West going over 100 and speedy Anthony Sharp breaking a long touchdown run.
It’s a beautiful day in the Ozarks and it’s going to be a fabulous night for football.
According to weather.com, it should be partly cloudy and a comfortable 70 degrees at kickoff tonight. Temperatures could dip down to 62 for the drive home around 10 p.m.
Lincoln coach Jonathan Johnson said that the Wolves’ top receiver, Michael Hoops, is day-to-day with a neck injury. It’s also questionable whether or not fullback Jason Rich will return to the field for Lincoln’s game with Prairie Grove on Friday.
Hoops injury will make it even harder for the Wolves to jumpstart their stagnant passing game, […]
The Lincoln Wolves have yet to score this season in consecutive losses to Westville, Okla., and Greenland.
The Wolves will look to hatch that goose egg this Friday against Prairie Grove, which shut out West Fork, 37-0, last Friday.
Prairie Grove certainly won’t make it easy for the Wolves.
Lincoln may have to wait until Week 4 at […]

The great thing about football is that there are no rainouts, but then again fans have to put up with wet weather.
Tonight is one of those nights.
The forecast is calling for temperatures to be a muggy 81 degrees at kickoff with scattered thundershowers.
So be sure to take a raincoat, poncho, rain boot and a hat […]
