KELSO Two high-level, perennial 4A/3A GSHL contenders took to the artificial turf at Schroeder Field on Friday night, as Kelso welcomed Mountain View in the season opener for both sides after more than 15 months off.
And the result? Well, at times it did indeed look like two squads playing their first real game since November 2019. Miscommunication, penalties, and fumbles plagued both sides, but in the end it was the Thunder that proved better at overcoming their miscues in a 37-21 win.
