A daunting task awaits a Pella football team hanging on to the Class 4A playoff bubble as the Dutch welcome #1 in 4A Bondurant-Farrar for week eight action. And while on paper the top-ranked Bluejays have strong balance, the current leaders of Class 4A District 4 lean heavily on their star running back Titus Cram, with his 1,119 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns. Pella will have to find a way to nab extra possessions away from the bulldozing offense while at the same time maintaining strong efficiency on their possessions, according to Head Coach Jay McKinstrey, to have a chance to pull off the upset. Coverage of Dutch football begins at 6:30 this evening on the KRLS2 stream and Pella Dutch Live.
