“I’m happy for the kids to get a win,” Varnado coach Adam Brumfield said. “We have had a chance to win and just haven’t finished the previous two games. I think it has a lot to do with our numbers. We have to continue to get in better shape but we fought through the fatigue and were able to come out on top. I thought our defense scheme was good and the kids carried out their assignments for the most part. We have to just keep improving. Our schedule only gets harder as we go.”

The Wildcats are 1-2 this year.

Varnado’s next game will be on Friday against Northeast on the road.

Northeast comes in with a record of 1-1 after a 20-6 win over Broadmoor.

This is the first meeting between the teams since 2012. Northeast won that game, 23-6.
