The Rangers football team travelled to Andes Central High School Aug. 20 to take on the Tripp-Delmont Thunderhawks.
 
According  to Coach Brett Eckert, the game was a “good way to see where we need to improve and get better.”
 
 Despite fighting hard, the team made  too many mistakes, killing drives offensively.  
 
“We did have some success moving the ball at times, but once again we can’t have miscues that then kill a drive,” Eckert said.
