Washington football set to face Burlington
Demons look for win over Grayhounds to start 2-0
Washington will be looking to start the season 2-0 come Friday night when the Demons square off with Burlington.
The Demons have downed the Grayhounds in back-to-back season and will hope to make it three straight with a win in 2024.
Washington topped Burlington 32-7 last season.
It’s not going to be a walk in the part by any means as Burlington has home field advantage and is riding a high after walloping Fort Madison in week one 35-7.
Washington comes in feeling pretty good as well. The Demons staved off Oskaloosa in its first game of the season, 21-14.
Logan McDole led the Demons through the air and on the ground in that one, posting 153 passing yards and two touchdowns, with 21 yards rushing.
Mason Morgan finished with 62 yards receiving with a touchdown. Jayfred Espinosa caught a touchdown as well. The pair each caught five passes.
Burlington was led by John Phillips in its week one win. Phillips threw for just 56 yards, but rushing for 155 and three touchdowns.
Darius Shealey followed with 79 yards and Adrian Perez-Hull had 57 yards. Both scored a touchdown as well.
