Pioneers Tune-up Versus Scott

Tonight was Senior Night at Chlorine B. Meneffee Stadium, and the Seniors ended the season on a high note, cruising to a 43-6 win. It didn't take long for SK to get on the board, sixty yards on five plays, Cory Crane scored from ten yards, extra point blocked. SK 6; Scott 0.

Scott's next drive lasted all of three plays, that's when Zach Carroll picked off errant pass on the Scott thirty-nine. Six plays later Danny Wetter scored from the one yard line, the extra point was good. SK 13; Scott 0

Three plays into the next Scott possession, SK forced another turnover. This time Keith Cubert took it back 20 yards for the score, SK led by 21. After limiting Scott to -6 yards on their next possession, it took one play for the score, Carroll hauling in a thirty-five yard strike from Lawrence. SK 27; Scott 0

The second quarter scoring didn't occur until the 6:47 mark. With Scott facing a 4th and long, the Scott punter could not wrangle in the snap, the result was a kick out of the end zone for the safety, SK now up 29-0. It took a little over a minute for the next score, a two play drive ended when Lawrence found DJ Rabe down the seam for a thirty-six yard touchdown. SK 36; Scott 0

Simon's last score of the night was another quick strike. After two Chad Lawrence runs, the Senior quarterback proceeded to hit Ryan Winkler and Winkler did work, breaking several tackles while scoring on the fifty-two yard reception. SK led at the half 43-0.

The reserves did a solid job in the second half before giving up a late score while facing the Scott starting offense. Next week the Tates Creek Commodores (6-4) will travel to Independence for a first round matchup. The Commodores have one common opponent with SK, that being Henry Clay. Simon defeated Clay earlier this season 21-18 while Tates Creek lost to the Devils last week by a score of 85-52. Game time will be 7:30 next Friday.
