Welcome to Jay Rozeboom Sports Complex for the 65th installment of the “Beef Bowl.” This historic rivalry, found in the heart of Iowa, features the 5-time State Champion West Lyon Wildcats and the 2-time State Champion Central Lyon Lions. The battle for Lyon County began in 1964 and is now one of the most anticipated matchups in the 21st season of the Great American Rivalry Series. 

Heading into this beef battle, the West Lyon Wildcats maintain a narrow 34-30 series lead, but the Central Lyon Lions have done their best to even the series by winning their last three contests, including a tight 7-0 victory last season. The Lions have been sizzling recently with a 25-1 record in their last two seasons, including a Division 2A State Championship victory in 2022. 

Mark your calendars for October 18th, as 5,000 fans anxiously watch to see which team will prevail in the “Beef Bowl.”
