KELSEYVILLE — It wasn”t an inspired performance, but it didn”t need to be.

It the North opener for the Knights (1-0), now 20-2 overall. Fort Bragg is 0-2 in league.
“We passed the ball terribly,” Kelseyville coach Larry Bresso said. “We barely went through the motions out there. Maybe we need to dump a game to get them fired up.”
