After falling short to the Badgers in their season opener, the Yorktown Wildcats came out determined to redeem themselves against Banquete on Friday, Sept. 5.
Quarterback Brody Metting connected with standout receiver Matthew Olguin for a 45-yard touchdown strike with 6:39 left in the first quarter. Banquete quickly answered with a 70-yard touchdown pass of their own and took the lead, 8-6, after a successful two-point conversion.
The Bulldogs’ air attack produced two long touchdowns—a 70-yard and a 42-yard passing touchdown, respectively. However, the first half ultimately belonged to Yorktown. Metting closed the opening quarter with a nineyard dash into the endzone, regaining the lead, 12-8.
