After a blowout of Illinois College to wrap up their non-conference schedule, the Simpson Storm football team has plans of starting off their Iowa Conference schedule off strong hosting Wartburg.

Last year on the road, the Storm defense played well while the offense struggled to score in a 20-6 loss, which is much how the season started for Simpson. The Storm offense was slow to start in their opening game against Wisconsin-Stout, but exploded in game two for a 45-13 win. The game will be broadcast live on AM 1320 and FM 95.3 KNIA, KNIAKRLS.com, and the free KNIA mobile app with Andrew Swadner and Rick Wilson on the call, with pregame at 12:35 and kickoff at 1.
