He says their kids believe in what they’re doing and work very hard. He says they have great skill kids and are very big on both sides of the line of scrimmage. Gladbrook-Reinbeck coach Chris Ehrhart says the Falcons know what it takes to win. He says they’re a fundamentally sound football team that’s aggressive.
