Source: American News, Aberdeen, S.迷你倉出租D.Sept. 06--Not that any Aberdeen Roncalli vs. Groton football game needs more hype, but tonight's annual contest comes with additional fanfare.The Northeast Conference football game at 5 p.m. at Swisher Field is part of the annual Hub City Bowl. The American News Game of the Week also mark's Roncalli's Homecoming, and it is the Cavaliers' first chance this fall to take the field as the top-rated Class 11B team in the state."I'm pretty sure there's a lot of teams at this particular point that think that they could probably be in there," said Roncalli coach Terry Dosch of the newly claimed top spot. "To my knowledge, that ranking and a buck will get a can of Coke."Facing a solid squad is nothing knew for Groton. Last week, the Tigers played Parkston, the third-rated team in 11B this week."We knew playing Parkston and Aberdeen this week, those are two of the better teams in 11B," said Groton coach Shaun Wanner. "You can't push the panic button. That's just going to make us a little bit better for the next six games."Roncalli struck quickly in its win over Redfield-Doland last week. The Cavaliers used a variety of big plays to offset less yardage and time of possession."We want to be able to run the ball better and control it a little bit more," Dosch noted. "We played a lot of defense. We just need to execute a little bit better and I think that will come."While Dosch said there was room for improvement on defense, he was pleased that his squad forced five turnovers last week."We just have to be aggressive and get to the ball and make things happen," he said.Groton features an experienced team, and while the Tigers failed to score to last week, Wanner saw plenty of reason for optimism."I thought for 2 1/2 quarters last week we played pretty good," Wanner pointed out. "They just kind of wore us down a little bit."Groton quarterback Parker Rossow threw for nearly 1,000 yards last season, but Wanner is looking for a balanced attack."We need to run the ball a little bit better," Wanner said. "That's one of my main concerns right now, because I know we can throw it."Wanner's biggest concern at the moment is Roncalli's big-play ability."They have some of the best skill kids in 11B," Wanner said. "That's what scares me a little bit, because I know they have a lot of different weapons at their skill positions. Every time they snap it, they can go the distance, whether throwing it or running it."Dosch knows that with the new number-one ranking, homecoming and Groton coming to town there will be plenty of commotion surrounding the game."You can't get too caught up in the all of the hurrah around who you're playing," Dosch cautioned. "Our jobs as coaches are to stay focused on the task at hand."Game notes: Roncalli defeated Groton last year in Groton during a thrilling season opener for both squads. Roncalli scored on the final play of the contest and added the PAT to pull out a 14-13 victory . . . Ronc迷你倉lli plays host to Flandreau at 7 p.m. next Friday . . .
