Kickapoo improves to 6-2 with another dominating defensive effort

The Kickapoo football team ended a six-game losing streak against rival Glendale on Friday night with a dominant 22-2 victory.

Kickapoo (6-2) hadn't beaten Glendale (5-3) since 2015.

After a 1-2 start to the season with losses to Camdenton and Lebanon in Week 2 and Week 3, the Chiefs have now reeled off a five-game win streak where they have allowed just 24 points.

Kickapoo's dominant defense, led by Missouri State commit Andrew Link, has allowed just two points in two games and a total of eight points in its last three wins.
