Our picks for Iowa high school football playoffs state quarterfinals

It is time for the quarterfinal round of the Iowa high school football playoffs. There is one team from the Ames area still standing in the IHSAA playoffs, as Roland-Story will hit the road to take on No. 2 Van Meter in the Class 2A quarterfinals on Friday, Nov. 6. The Norsemen are coming off their most impressive showing of the season, a 42-14 dismantling of No. 4 Mid-Prairie in the Round of 16 on Oct. 30. They have one more hurdle to clear to achieve their goal of reaching the UNI-Dome for the state semifinals. But it is a big hurdle —a No. 2 Van Meter team that beat Roland-Story in last year's Round of 16. The Bulldogs also boast four state championships since 2017, including three in a row from 2021-2023. Here is the Ames Tribune's pick for Roland-Story versus Van Meter in the 2A high school football playoff quarterfinals. Iowa high school football playoffs predictions: State quarterfinals Roland-Story at Class 2A No. 2 Van Meter Roland-Story (8-2); Van Meter (9-1): Roland-Story is coming off one of the most impressive victories in program history on Oct. 30 when the Norsemen traveled to Wellman and pummeled No. 4 Mid-Prairie,

Predicting Iowa high school football playoffs games, IHSAA quarterfinal

The Iowa high school football playoff picture has narrowed to the final eight teams in each class as teams get set for the state quarterfinals . After the Round-of-16, just three Iowa City-area teams remain alive and will now battle for a spot in next week's state semifinal. Last week, Iowa City Liberty went to Indianola and came away with a 28-14 win behind another strong offensive performance. Solon took down Fairfield at home as Maddox Kelley proved again he's hard to slow down. And Regina, which plays its best at home, took care of Sigourney Keota, 49-13. The Spartans and Regals get one last playoff game at home, and with a win, will travel to UNI-Dome. Meanwhile, Liberty will travel to Ankeny to try and pull off another upset and advance to the state semifinals. Here are the Iowa City Press-Citizen's predictions for the IHSAA quarterfinals . Iowa City Liberty vs. Ankeny The Hawks are coming off a near-upset to Waukee last Friday, but they pulled out a 43-37 win.

Kirkwood Iowa Student Spotlight: Patrick Peach

Patrick Peach, a junior at Iowa Valley High School, has been featured in the Kirkwood Iowa County winter newsletter. According to the newsletter, Peach began taking duel credit courses through Kirkwood as a high school freshman. “My favorite courses that I have taken through Kirkwood is probably Calculus I and II, because I am a huge math fan.” Peach said he learned a lot about the world through the sociology and world religion class he attended. “It opened my eyes to what happens in the whole world and not just this little slice in Iowa,” he said. Peach said in the newsletter that while all of his Kirkwood professors made a lasting difference in his life, Nathan Eric Dickman probably made the most difference. “His world religion class help open up my worldview and changed how I think about the world outside of Iowa. His replies on discussion posts were also very helpful in understanding these cultures that are so different than our own,” Peach said. Taking dual credit classes in high school can help prepare students for college, Peach said in the newsletter. The classes teach time management and how to handle the workload of college classes. “However they

Ankeny Christian punches ticket to state title match with win over Fort Madison Holy Trinity

CORALVILLE - Michelle Quick's voice was about gone. Fortunately for the Ankeny Christian coach, her players did not need a whole lot of instruction her during Wednesday's Class 1A state semifinal match with Fort Madison Holy Trinity at Xtream Arena. After winning straight Class 1A titles from 2022-24, the Eagles missed the state meet last year. They have been on point from the start of this year's tournament. They needed just over an hour to dispatch Crusaders (31-7) 25-14, 25-14, 25-21 to earn a spot in Thursday's 1A title match, set to start at 7 p.m. "Today, I thought they did a lot of really good things together," she said. "They really trusted each other coming into this game, telling each other 'I feel it. I feel it' When they get going like that, there is not a lot I can do but just let them play." And play they did. Holy Trinity had a thrilling five-set win over Wapsie Valley in the quarterfinals, but they could never get in much of a rhythm in Wednesday's match. Quick said the team did some film study in preparation for the match, but spent most of the day taking it easy. "The
