Big plays kill Vikes in loss

Week three proved to be disappointing for the vikes. The game started off poorly, with an opening game kickoff return for the Topeka High Trojans. The following drive was stalled by a penalty. Giving the ball right back to the trojans. High eventually scored. Putting the Vikes in a hole 14-0. Speedy Kyle Dunham scampered to the endzone towards the end of the first quarter. Sure-handed senior wide out Jacob Hurla also hauled in a touchdown catch evening the game at 14-14. But defensive breakdowns have been the story of the year and 26 seconds before half missed tackles led to a 41-yard touchdown for the Troy. After half the Vikes came out flat and couldn't get the ball moving. Which proved to be costly in a 37-14 loss.
