Cougars spoil BCLUW homecoming

CONRAD — AGWSR did not attempt a single pass Friday night against BCLUW, yet racked up more than 400 yards on the ground and spoiled homecoming for the Comets with a dominant 51-6 win in Conrad.
    “Just keep pounding. If you don’t have to throw, why throw?” AGWSR coach Skip Eckhardt asked after the game. “The guys did a good job blocking and running, and that’s what we’re about: getting out here and running the ball.”
    The Cougar offense got rolling early when junior running back Levi Stockdale capped a nine play, 62-yard drive with a nine-yard touchdown run up the middle of the field. On its next drive, BCLUW used a hard count on fourth and six to get within a yard of a first down, but a subsequent false start forced the Comets to punt.
    Stockdale picked up right where he left off, breaking a pair of first down runs before scoring his second touchdown of the night on a 15-yard scamper to the right. A missed extra point made the score 13-0 in favor of AGWSR with about two and a half minutes remaining in the opening frame.
