Rushford-Peterson at Lewiston-Altura
7 p.m., Friday, Sept. 30

Rushford-Peterson can take a big step forward in its hunt for the Mid Southeast District East Division title this week as it travels to Lewiston-Altura.

The No. 4-1A Trojans (4-0, 3-0) have taken care of business this season while the No. 8-2A Cardinals (3-1, 2-1) stumbled for the first time last week, losing to Fillmore Central 12-7.

To avoid another trip, Lewiston-Altura must rely on its stingy defense -- one that has surrendered just 6.3 points per game this season -- to stop Rushford-Peterson senior running back Noah Carlson, who leads the team with 734 yards and 10 TDs this season.
