Going into Friday’s game, head coach Todd Creneti had one goal: to be 1-0 in the district.  Well the Falcons couldn’t have started their district run in a better way.

The Falcon offense hit a high score of the season, putting up 42 points in the game. Out of those 42 points, 28  came from the first half.

Thanks to DJ Clark, 21′, he scored 3 first half touchdowns: one including a long 72 yard run. As well as DJ’s 3 rushing touchdowns, Xavier Williams, 20′, threw a 25 yard touchdown pass to star senior Jordan Edwards.

Clark added another rushing touchdown in the second half, and quarterback Patrick O’Keefe 21′ also ran for a touchdown.

Falcon’s defense looked lights out all night, allowing only 143 total yards.

The Falcons are now 3-1 on the year and do not seem to slowing down.
