With only one district game remaining on their 2017 schedule, the Punchers increased their district record to 3-0, and their overall record to 9-0, defeating the Junction Eagles on Friday night 56-7.
Friday night's game, like many this year, seemed heavily weighted to the first half of the game, with only 14 points scored in the second half of the game.
7th grade
The 7th grade played well as they beat Junction 37-14.
A couple of early big runs by Junction kept them in the game early but the 7th grade defense played lights out as they held them to only 2 scores.
Scoring for the 7th grade Punchers were Isaiah Bishop with 4 touchdowns and a two-point conversion, Ivan Wofford with a touchdown pass and a 2 point conversion pass, Quince Lawler with touchdown reception from I.
