NINE-MAN

NEVIS (11-1) vs. SPRING GROVE (13-0), FRIDAY, 10 A.M.

Two teams making their first Prep Bowl appearances. Expect a showcase of the quarterbacks of each team. After five consecutive losses in the Section 1 championship game to Grand Meadow, Spring Grove finally gets to show what it’s got on the big stage. The Lions go as junior QB Alex Folz goes; he’s accounted for 3,574 total yards this season (1,471 rushing, 2,103 passing). Nevis QB Jack DuWulf is also a dual threat with more than 1,600 total yards. DuWulf has a more accomplished supporting cast, with DuWulf’s brother, Luke, and Zach Henry catching his passes, and RBs Kyle Schmidt and Tucker Roehl carrying the ball.

The pick

Jim: Spring Grove 36, Nevis 22

David: Nevis 38, Spring Grove 35
