Emmetsburg, Ia (KICD) – The Emmetsburg E-Hawk Football Team will be looking to make another trip to the Playoffs in 2023 after 4-4 Regular season in 2022. They will need to fill in a few gaps left by last season’s Senior Class.

That’s Emmetsburg Football Coach Ben Thomsen, who wants the E-Hawks to continue their physical brand of football that they are known for.

Thomsen will have a lot of athletes on both sides of the ball for Emmetsburg this season.

The district looks a little different for Emmetsburg this season after the re-shuffling of classes this spring.

Emmetsburg kicks off their season with a big challenge against Central Lyon/George-Little Rock on the road on August 25th. Matt Groenewold will have coverage of Emmetsburg’s game at Sioux Central on September 22nd. You can hear that game on Big Country 107.7.
