Axtell (8M-II) is really, really good… #sportsinkansas

How good is 8M-II Axtell? They beat the preseason ranked #5 8M-I team, Chase County, by point rule (46-0) before the half tonight. The dynasty under Eric Detweiler has now won 42 games in a row. #sportsinkansas

Axtell 🏈has won 39 straight football games and three consecutive 8M-II state football championships under head coach Eric Detweiler. Axtell has just over 40 total students in its high school and around half of them are out for football. We were in town today to catch up with coach and several team members that we will hear from tomorrow. What a great small community in our state with incredible community support. #sportsinkansas
