High School Football: Trojans 21, Mustangs 13

Iola’s Friday night 21-13 home loss to Girard was sort of a head-scratcher.

In one respect, the Mustangs were fortunate to lose by just a touchdown after coughing up five turnovers. In another aspect, Iola and its defense gave the Mustangs every possible opportunity to bring home a third straight win.

Instead, Iola’s loss dropped the Mustangs to 2-5 and 2-2 in district play.

Mustang head coach David Daugharthy was left shaking his head at what could have been after a furious fourth-quarter rally almost overcame what had been a 21-0 deficit in the third quarter.
