Dukes aim to spoil LaSalle-Peru Homecoming clash
Dixon High travels to LaSalle to face the Cavaliers in an NCIC Northeast game hoping to snap a six game skid. The Dukes look to disrupt homecoming with a 5 45 p m kickoff at Howard Felles Stadium and a 7 45 p m varsity follow, while Dixon tries to reverse a 0-4 league and 1-6 overall mark. Cavs 0-4 2-5 seek resurgence after losses and roster changes, with key players Turczyn out and Wenzel and Bima leading the attack.
