The Harper Longhorns came to Mason Friday night with a 7-0 record; but, the Mason Punchers would take home the first district win of the two teams.
Things began quickly with the Punchers' Haddon Hudson sprinting in 66 yards on one of the first plays of the game to put Mason on the scoreboard.
The last two weeks, the JV White team has taken on the freshman team from Wall.
In the first match-up, the Punchers struggled in the first half giving up a large lead. They began to find their stride in the second half though; but, in the end still lost 33-12.
In the second match-up, the Punchers played much better only giving up a few huge plays.
The JV Purple took on the Harper JV this past week. This is the first district game of the year and the Punchers didn’t disappoint.
With great play on both sides of the ball the Punchers were able to move the ball up and down the field with the run game behind the big offense of line.
The final score was Mason 46-0 over the Harper Longhorns.
