After capping last season off with a conference championship win over the eventual state runner-up, Algoma showed Thursday night against NEW Lutheran/Oneida Nation that they don't plan on slowing down anytime soon.

In its 34-8 win over the United, the Wolves jumped out to a 12-0 lead only to see it get whittled down to four in the second half. That's as close as the game would get as Lane Cochart's long touchdown sparked a run of 22 unanswered points to eliminate any doubt.

Speaking of last year's state runner-up, Algoma plays Lena/St. Thomas Aquinas next Thursday in Lena at 7 p.m.
