  • No. 3 ranked Rams routs Creston, 11-1

        Another cold, damp night. Another Glenwood boys soccer win.
        Coming off a dominating 6-0 victory over Atlantic on Monday the Rams traveled to Creston  Thursday in the rain and cold and left with a 11-1 victory.
        “It was about the same as Monday,” said Glenwood coach Mike Artist. “Cold and damp against a very similar team I thought. They (Creston) are down quite a bit from last year and once they got a goal, we sort of bounced back and controlled it.”
