The Prince George Kodiaks get another crack at the Valley Huskers on Saturday night.
Three weeks after the Huskers handed them a convincing 31-5 defeat July 23 in Chilliwack, the Kodiaks are back on the road, still seeking the expansion franchise’s first B.C. Football Conference win.
The youthful Kodiaks (0-2) were much improved last week in their home debut at Masich Place Stadium but came out on the losing end of a 35-20 decision at the hands of the Kamloops Broncos.
The Huskers (2-1) are coming off a 14-7 win last Saturday in Chilliwack over the Langley Rams. Prince George will be back on home turf om Saturday, Aug. 20 for a rematch against the Huskers.
