Kayla Armstrong wanted to find a college where she could play soccer at a high level and study to become a pharmacist.
She found both at Drake.
Armstrong, an all-state player who helped Xavier win the Class 2A title last spring, has committed to the Bulldogs and will enroll as a freshman next year.
Reggie Schulte began asking his father to diagram football plays for him when he was in the fifth grade and a ballboy for the Xavier Saints.
He learned his lessons well.
Schulte tossed four touchdown passes Friday night as No. 4 Xavier blanked Kennedy, 35-0, in a 42nd Street mismatch at the Saints Field.
The Xavier Saints have cruised to four straight victories this season and have walloped their opponents by a combined score of 198-35.
Coach Duane Schulte isn't sure if he wants a tough game to challenge his team or not, but he's convinced he's going to get one from Kennedy.
"I think we're going to be tested this Friday night," he said. "Kennedy is a good football team. They're big and fast."
On paper, it's a mismatch. The Saints have won four straight and are ranked No.4 in Class 4A by the Des Moines Register. The Cougars have lost four straight and have had problems scoring.
Xavier slipped one spot to No. 8 in this week's Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union volleyball poll released Thursday.
The Saints (12-6) fell after losing to Class 5A No. 1 Iowa City High in three straight games Tuesday night.
Xavier is the only Metro team in the rankings.
IOWA CITY - Ben Sagers shot a 5-over-par 41 Tuesday to lead the Xavier Saints at a Mississippi Valley Conference triangular meet at Finkbine Golf Course.
Iowa City West trimmed the Saints for first place, 167-169.
Tyler Whitehead of Iowa City West claimed medalist honors with a 40.
