MORAN — Marmaton Valley High’s hopes to host a playoff game were doused Friday, with a 46-0 loss to visiting Lebo.
The Wildcats fell to 2-2 in district play (3-4 overall) with the loss, meaning they can finish no higher than third in the final district standings. The top two teams in each district will host a playoff game Oct. 27. The third- and fourth-place teams will be on the road the same evening.
The third-place seed will be determined this week when Marmaton Valley travels to St. Paul. The Indians also are at 2-2 in district action.
Marmaton Valley’s potent offense was kept in check by Lebo’s stifling defense.
Jaedon Granere led the Wildcats with 59 yards rushing and 26 yards receiving on three catches.
Brayden Lawson rushed for 46 yards and passed for 26 yards.
