A trying season for Oskaloosa Indians football came to an end on Friday night in a 43-0 defeat at Clear Creek Amana.

The game was controlled by the Clippers from the opening drive: they scored on 5 out of their first 6 drives to take a 36-0 lead before halftime (including a fake PAT that resulted in a successful 2-point conversion with the Clippers already up by 34 points). On the other side of the ball, Osky managed -36 yards of offense in the first half before the game entered a running clock scenario.

The second half was played entirely with a running clock and the Clippers got back on the scoreboard one more time with a 100-yard interception returned for a touchdown to make it a 43-0 final score.

The Indians’ season ends with an 0-9 record. The team graduates 13 seniors, including Kayne Boender, Parker Jordan, Samba Cisse, Omar Garcia, Chad McDonald-Playle, Trevin Griffen, Elijah Roy, Iestyn Buchanan, Brock Beerbower, Holden Braundmeier, Landon Van Donselaar, Maddox Maxwell, and Thomas Wiley.
