The Patriots continued to put together big stops in the second quarter and added three more scores, earning a commanding 52-0 lead at halftime.
The Patriots opened up the second half with some younger faces on the field. Still, the Patriot defense remained stout, only allowing 12 points in the second half and putting together some solid drives offensively.
The patriots captured a 52-12 lead to improve to 1-3 on the season and start undefeated in district play.
Easton Brabec said, “We played a team game against Twin River. We were able to fire off early and allow some of our younger guys to get in and gain some experience."
“We Were able to jump on them and get a good lead, it was fun to have a fast start for a change,” Head Coach Jim Clarkson said, “It was a good win and got us off to a good start in the district.”
