Pioneers football battle Tigers in Peninsula Conference opener

The Sevastopol Pioneers will try to get their first victory of the season when they welcome the Gillett Tigers for eight-player football action on Thursday.

 

In their 28-14 loss to Valley Christian last week, The Pioneers found themselves down 22-0 heading into the second half before breaking through with a score in the third quarter thanks to an eight-yard touchdown pass from Logan Schuh to Oliver Matthew. Landon Frank scored the other Pioneers touchdown in the fourth quarter on a long 56-yard rush. Frank and Schuh combined to rush for 167 yards on 23 carries. 

 

The Tigers had their way with county rival Suring last week, scoring two touchdowns in each of the first two quarters en route to a 46-12 victory. Jesse DeBauch had five total touchdowns (four passing, one rushing) as he nearly threw for 300 yards while rushing another 40 yards. Jackson Pecha rushed for the other score while Nathan Rowell nearly hit 100 yards on the ground on just seven carries.

 

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.
