Friday night, Oct. 6, we traveled to Mountain View to play the number 1 ranked team in the state and defending state champions. Defensively we hung in early but our offense never got on track as Mountain View proved to be too physical for us up front and quickly shut down our run game. Late in the first quarter Mountain View went up 7-0 and took a 14-0 lead into halftime. Our defense got a stop on the first series of the second half but we could not get going on offense and left them with a short field. After scoring touchdowns in the third and fourth quarters, Mountain View won 28-0. Our Senior High record is 4-3 and we will finish our regular season this Friday, Oct. 13 versus Rosebud at Bobcat Stadium.

We traveled to Cedar Ridge and picked up our 4th win of the season on Friday, September 29th by a score of 54-6. Our defense was a strong presence with multiple sacks led by Peyton Cartwright. The defense had two forced fumbles, and a defensive touchdown. They only allowed one score on the very first drive of the game and the defensive line then, shut them out. We had a diverse offensive attack with 167 yards of rushing behind our offensive line with 134 yards through the air, two rushing and four passing touchdowns. Seth Smith threw 3 touchdowns. Colben Pettus threw one and Jakob Cox accounted for 4 touchdowns total.
