SIKESTON - If you are on your way to Public School Stadium Friday night and pass the Sikeston team bus leaving town, don't worry. They'll be back. After getting a strong effort from his players in two road games this season and a lackluster performance at home, Sikeston coach Charlie Vickery is pondering a slightly different approach this week. "The team has used time on the bus to get focused and mentally prepared for the game," said Vickery. "So I'm not ruling out the possibility of getting a bus and driving the players around town before the game if that is what it takes."
