Warriors runs past Clippers on U-102.1

The Sturgeon Bay Clippers ran out of gas in the second half, but the Waupun Warriors powered through to win 32-22 Friday night.

 

As both offenses tried to get traction in the first half, it was an 80-yard punt return by Patrick Haese that got the Clippers on the scoreboard first with the following two-point conversion, making it an 8-0 game. The Warriors would find the endzone on their next drive, with Chase Beahm finding Logan Prall from 30 yards out to tie the game at eight. Caleb Plzak followed up his interception of Beahm late in the second quarter with the Clippers' best drive of the night. A dump-off pass to Haese capped off that drive that he took into the endzone to make it 14-8 at the break.

The Clippers' offense would stall in the second quarter, with the first two drives ending in interceptions and the following four being turned over on downs. Meanwhile, the Warriors took control with three touchdowns in the second half, including two more touchdown passes by Beahm. The Clippers ended the night on a good night when Caleb Plzak found Bryce Plzak from 39 yards out for the final score.

The Clippers return to action on Friday night when they host Antigo in Sturgeon Bay. Jacob Nate will have the call from Memorial Field beginning at 6:45 p.m. with the pregame show followed by the kickoff at 7 p.m.
