Truckee is set to play Colfax August 19th in Truckee. These two teams recently played during the Covid-19 Spring season where the Falcons beat the Wolverines 7-21. Truckee had very little to cheer about in this matchup as Colfax mostly dominated Truckee. In recent years, Colfax has had Truckee’s number and historically Truckee has only beat Colfax eight times. While, Truckee has many Nevada opponents they’ve played over 20 times, Colfax is the California opponent that Truckee has faced off with the most. In face this used to be a rival game for the two schools back in the 60’s and 70’s. The Wolverines will look to take down the Falcons for just the second time in their last six matchups. Colfax returns their top RB, Malako Thompson, who will be a Junior this season. They also return a 3-year starter at TE Kenny Gull. The biggest question for Colfax will be their new coach. Can their new coach replace the legendary Tony Martello who had 230 career wins, 37 of those in the playoffs, 16 league championships, 4 section championships, and 1 State Title. In comes Jason Stowers to see if he can pick up where Martello left off. If he’s to get his first win at Truckee he will have a tall task in game one. Truckee returns most of their defense and has a great team speed. If they can find a way to score points on the Falcons they should have a good chance to get a victory.
