After a tough loss last week, the Webbers Falls Warriors will be looking to bounce back on Friday night when they host Agra.

Kickoff for the non-district game is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at Smokey Cox Stadium. Webbers Falls is 2-2 overall and Agra comes into the contest at 1-3.

Warrior head coach Jeff Jones said he wants his team to focus on getting better so they can make a push for a homefield playoff berth once they resume play in District C-4.

"The main thing is having a good week of practice and realizing what we still have in front of us," said Jones.

Agra began playing football last season and is competing in Class B. The Bearcats are coached by George Weve and led by sophomore quarterback Brady Brownell.

"It's their second year to play football and they're 1-3. Their coach does a pretty good job. They do things right and they play hard," said Jones. "Their quarterback is their best player. They'll be in several formations and try to spread you out, so it will be good preparation for Claremore Christian."

Agra is coming off a 36-12 loss to Kiefer, while Webbers Falls was defeated 34-20 at Maud last week. Jones said the Warriors must get back to winning the turnover battle if they want to be successful this week.

"We have to cut out the mistakes we made last week or else it's going to be a tough game against anyone we play," said Jones.

After four games, A.J. McFarland continues to lead Webbers Falls in tackles with 48. The Lea brothers-Allen and Justin-both have 40 tackles, followed by Kile Turley (38), Mitchell Carman (34), Michael Dugan (26), Chad Dandridge (24) and Cody Gaxiola (22).

Offensive leaders for the Warriors include Hunter Hume with 279 yards rushing and Allen Lea with 250. Dandridge has completed 16-of-35 passes for 277 yards and six touchdowns. The leading receivers are McFarland (three for 117 yards), Carman (seven for 113) and Jacob Glad (four for 52).

After an experiment that lasted several months, the editors at Your TIMES decided this week to end the practice of allowing anonymous comments on our website because most of the comments involve personal attacks and unfounded accusations. These comments do not add information to a story, or add any true insight. While we believe in the free exchange of ideas, it had become evident that was not what was happening in the comment section of our website. Readers can also become fans of Your TIMES on Facebook and may comment on our postings there. Readers are also encouraged to write letters to the editor to the newspaper about matters of public interest. The newspaper circulation is several times that of the web site, so readership is much higher.
