Path To A Ship
The Vikings are coming off a season where they made it to the open state championship but lost to the Perry Pumas. They have proven to be one of the best teams in the state and should be treated as such.
The team held the Highland Hawks, who won the 6A championship last year and are considered one of the top teams in the state, to just 26 points.
