On Saturday, October 26th, the Clinton JV football finished their season with a victory at Ida. It was a hard fought game between the Redwolves and the Bluestreaks with Clinton earning the win, 28 to 14. Clinton was able to strike first with a touchdown run by Gradyn Whelan and a two point conversion run by Isaac Keibler.

Clinton would take advantage of this and march down the field again scoring off of a touchdown run by Braxton Randolph. On the first play of their following drive, Ida would rip off a long touchdown run and pull within a score. This would not deter the Redwolves, as Whelan would complete a long touchdown pass to Daejaun Garrison, and they would convert the 2 point conversion on a run by Randolph. This would make the halftime score 22 to 6. On the opening drive of the 2nd half Ida would march down the field and score and convert the 2 point conversion making the score 22 to 14. Once again the Redwolves would not be stopped as they marched down the field on a drive of their own, eventually scoring on a Jake Halchishak touchdown run. Clinton would stop an Ida effort to push down the field and score, forcing a turnover on downs and getting the ball back to the offense who was able to run out the remaining of the clock, to make the Redwolves victorious. The Clinton Redwolves JV football team had an incredible season finishing 8 and 1 and not losing a game in conference play.

The Tigers would respond by putting together a drive of their own and eventually scoring on a short touchdown run of their own, but the Redwolves defense would stuff them on their two point try making the score 8 to 6. With a minute and a half left, Clinton would put together a 57 yard drive as time expired to score and make the score 16 to 6.
