Vinton-Shellsburg makes its first postseason in 17 years
There’s a bell at the north end of the Karr Athletic Complex in Vinton. A victory bell. “We only ring it when we win,” Vinton-Shellsburg football coach Joe Hadachek said. “It’s been kind of dusty for years.” Kind of dusty. Kind of quiet. But the bell rang loudly Friday night after the Vikings held off Denver 25-20. It signified more than victory. For the first time in 17 years, Vinton-Shellsburg will be playing playoff football. “I’m on top of the world today,” Hadachek said Saturday morning. “Three years of putting into this program … the staff, the administration, the kids, the players, the teachers … we’ve been making steps of progress each year.” Vinton-Shellsburg (4-4) will face No. 1 Alburnett (7-1) next Friday. If the Vikings can pull the upset — and it would be a biggie — it would be the first postseason win in school history. The task Friday was simple, and it was familiar. Last year, the Vikings played at Denver in Week 8 with identical stakes: Winner made the playoffs, loser was out. Denver won that battle. Vinton-Shellsburg got this one, leading 25-8 at halftime and holding on. “The first half, we played the best football

Fake punt helps send East Buchanan to the Class A District 4 title
WINTHROP — Caught off guard with that fake-punt call? You weren’t alone. “I wasn’t expecting that,” East Buchanan quarterback Keenan Pals said. “Our coaches never do that.” Never say never. On fourth-and-19, just before halftime, Trey Cornell raced 44 yards for a touchdown on a reverse out of punt formation, and sixth-ranked East Buchanan went on to defeat Maquoketa Valley 34-20 Friday night at Buccaneer Field. “(Assistant) coach (Justin) Shaffer … he’s a genius with what he comes up with,” Bucs Coach Jerry Alden said. “What he does for our offense is unreal.” The outcome — coupled with North Linn’s 28-0 win over Wapsie Valley — meant a Class A District 4 championship for the Buccaneers (7-1, 5-1). They’ll host a first-round playoff game here next week. The Iowa High School Athletic Association will reveal first-round pairings for 2A, 1A, Class A and 8-Player at 10 a.m. Saturday. This district houses four very good teams, all of which were tied for first place before Friday. East Buchanan was 3-5 last season and missed the postseason. “The work these seniors have put in … the biggest thing is the confidence we have,” Alden said. Enough confidence to call a fake punt
