Outlook For Friday's Game
ROSSVILLE (7-2) AT NEMAHA CENTRAL (7-2)
The two small-school powers haven’t played in three years, but their last two meetings were big ones. Rossville knocked off 27-22 in the 2016 3A state semifinals and went on to capture its third straight Class 3A state championship. The two also met in the second round in 2015 with Tucker Horak’s monster game leading Rossville to a 61-20 win. There’s another Horak guiding Rossville this year with sophomore Torrey having rushed for 1,044 yards and 16 touchdowns and thrown for 939 yards and 16 scores. Woodrow Rezac has added 793 yards and nine scores on the ground and Bo Reeves had 500 yards receiving and eight TDs. Nemaha Central has won six straight since a 1-2 start with the losses coming to Sabetha (13-6) and Holton (28-14). Dylan Schultejans has thrown for 1,337 yards and 19 touchdowns with four receivers having at least 15 catches and 220 yards.

School Threat A Hoax
Posted on the school FB page on Nov. 5:
Kaw Valley, Rossville Jr/Sr. High School, the Rossville Police department and the Shawnee County Sheriff’s office investigated a message that was found threatening the school on the bathroom wall. Through our investigation we able to determine the origin of the message and also determined it was a hoax. The suspect was identified in this process and we worked alongside law enforcement to take the proper steps necessary. We at Rossville Jr/Sr. High School are dedicated to student safety and that it is our number one priority. We want to thank our partners in law enforcement in bringing this situation to a close.
From the Rossville Police FB page:
On 11/05/19 at approximately 9am an almost unintelligible written future threat was discovered on a bathroom wall at the Rossville Junior-Senior High. School administration immediately called the Rossville Police Department. Upon our initial review, it was determined no immediate threat existed at that time. A joint investigation was initiated involving the Rossville Police, USD # 321, and the Shawnee County Sheriff and revealed the threat was not credible. The suspect was identified through detailed video review and interviews to be a student. The threat was found to be a copy-cat hoax from an incident that occurred recently in another city. Appropriate disciplinary steps were taken administratively by the school as required by policy. The Rossville Police Department wishes to thank USD # 321 administration and staff as well as the Shawnee County Sheriff's Office for their cooperation and quick response to this unfortunate incident.
