BRAVES FACE FALCONS-Quarterback Ace Monihen prepares to pass during The Council Grove Braves game against Riley County. The team was in action on Friday night against the Falcons of Riley County, losing 63-14. “The game was a re-run of what we’ve been through these last three weeks,” said Coach Butch Hayes. “We get down early, start hanging our heads a bit and before we know it, the game is out of reach. This has been the hardest stretch of football I’ve been through as a coach. We just need to keep our heads up and enjoy play and coaching the game. It’ll turn for us, we just need to stick together and take it one play at a time.” (Photo by Amber Weeks)
