McCOOK, Neb. — The Baltimore Ravens have been known for epic defensive seasons, but it was McCook Football League Ravens who blanked Colts 8-0 at Weiland Field Thursday evening.
Neither team scored in this seventh-grade season opener until Bo Truska broke free to rumble 39 yards for those huge first six points.
Easton Frecks then fired a two-point pass to Jed Crawford and that Raven defense did the rest.
