The Indianola football team will try to keep their perfect record alive tonight hosting the J-Hawks of Cedar Rapids Jefferson at Indianola Stadium. The Indians defense has been stellar to start the season, giving up just one touchdown from scrimmage in a broken play against Norwalk, and the offense has been efficient with quarterback Asher Brueck completing passes at nearly 74%. The Indianola defense will have to deal with a fearsome J-Hawks offensive attack, which has put up 63 points in the first two weeks. Head coach Eric Kluver said the game will hinge on the defense making plays and stopping the game from being a track meet, and the offense cashing in on drives.
