General McLane

Traditionally, General McLane has been a big rival for Northwestern. Since GM became a triple A school and we moved out of the ECL, the rivalry has lost some of its punch. This year GM is not so worried about the Wildcats because they are looking only at our record and game scores. What they may not be seeing is the hard hitting defense or the deceptive offense which has become a trademark for this rejuvenated program.
This week the defense must play disciplined, rule-based football to slow the GM option attack. We will not stop them completely, but we will slow them down and force them into some tough 3rd down situations. In the mean time, the offense will execute precise plays and dominate the clock thus keeping the Lancer offense on the sidelines.
Come to the Lancers field, only 10 minutes away, and help cheer the hard-working Wildcats to a victory against this rival. A 500 season is within our reach! We will give you 4 quarters of play this week because we BELIEVE, and the seniors are going to leave their mark and legacy for future teams to follow!
