WyoPreps’ David Settle had a chance to visit with Kelly Walsh head coach Aaron Makelky and Rock Springs head coach Mark Lenhardt before the big matchup. Coach Makelky discussed his teams’ start to the season, their key player, Cam Burkett, breaking in a new QB, some top defenders, and preparing for the Tigers. Lenhardt talked about the big win for his team on the road last week, handling a big-game atmosphere, what he’s seeing from QB Brock Bider, and getting ready for the Trojans in the audio interviews above.
