The two teams exchanged punts early, but it was the Storm who got on the board first, when Diesel Bosdeck intercepted an Eli Derenne pass and returned it 55 yards for a touchdown. The Spartans would drive down the field a couple times but be turned away by Kewaunee's defense each time. Bosdeck found the end zone again, taking a quarterback keeper 11 yards to increase the lead to 14-0. The Spartans drove down the field, but were turned away on 4th and goal, in the final minute of the first half.
Luxemburg Casco received the opening kickoff of the 2nd half and got a great return, crossing midfield. A Spartans penalty backed up the offense and the drive stalled out. Kewaunee got a field goal late in the 3rd, to extend the lead to 17-0. Luxemburg Casco had one last gasp, as the Spartans picked their way down the field, capped off by a Ben Klass 1 yd touchdown. The Spartans went for a two point conversion but came up short. LC got a stop and had one more chance on offense but had another turnover on downs after a pair of drops late in the drive. Kewaunee ran down the clock, closing out the game on a fake punt to finish off the game.
Kewaunee will travel to Bonduel to kick off Packerland Conference play next week, who will come into that contest 2-0 after a 19-7 win over Coleman on Friday. Luxemburg Casco is on the road again next Friday, traveling to the 2-0 Kohler/Sheboygan Lutheran/Christian, which will be broadcasted on 104.1 WRLU.
