Wartburg heads West for second round of playoffs

Wartburg will travel to Oregon this weekend for the second round of the division-three football playoffs. On Saturday, the Knights will take on seventh-ranked Linfield after a 45-0 victory over Lake Forest in the opening round. Wartburg coach Rick Willis feels his team came out of the game healthy. Linfield had a first round bye, but Willis does not feel that will be a factor in this game. Willis says the Knights face a big challenge as they’re a big, physical football team.
