Madison La Follette visits Madison Memorial LIVE on Zimbrick Honda’s Presentation of PrepMania!

The Lancers enter Week 9 with a 4-4 record after defeating Janesville Craig, 31-21, last Friday. A win over Memorial would give La Follette a strong chance to qualify for the WIAA playoffs.

Madison Memorial is 6-2 and should make the playoffs win or lose, but a loss could make the Spartans’ postseason path much closer. Memorial will also look to bounce back after a 20-14 loss to Verona ended its five-game winning streak.

It’s a Big Eight Conference matchup between two Madison rivals with major playoff implications as the regular season heads toward the finish line!
