LEROY – Midway through the season, and with District 4-4A play a week away, the North Vermilion Patriots stand poised for their new adventures in Class 4A.
But what coach Brett Blakey’s squad saw Friday night against Iota provided some sobering moments in a 30-7 defeat.
“At 3-2, I think we’re better than some expected us to be,” Blakey said. “For the most part, the guys are doing a great job. But we’ve got to learn how to finish the job. We had trouble with Ascension (Episcopal) and Erath, but were able to pull those out.

If there were such thing as a Vermilion Parish football champion, then the winner of the award this year would be the Vermilion Catholic Eagles.
The Eagles (4-1) have played three Class 3A Vermilion Parish football teams and beat each one after scoring an average of 38 points.
The Eagles have now beaten Abbeville, Kaplan, and the Erath Bobcats became the latest parish victim.
For the second week in a row, VC jumped out to a big lead and cruised to a victory.
