The Jaguar football team wins their District opener against ELC 40-13 and moves to 3-1 for the season.

This was a great way to start District play and the Jaguars struggled the last 2 weeks to get things going but they wasted no time getting things going as on play 2 Mason Bahr hit Logan Jaeschke for a 61 yard TD to take a 6-0 lead.

Jaguars defense forces a 3 and out.

Jags offense drive down the field on a 10 play drive with runs from Casey Hanson and Drew Temple and Casey Hanson hit Logan Jaeschke for a 8 yard TD and Spencer Peterson hit the PAT and just like that Jags 13-0

ELC puts an 11 play drive together but Jags stop them on 4th down.

Jags put a 13 play drive together with Ian Brunner having a 20 yard reception, 25 yard run from Mason Bahr, 3 runs from Casey Hanson for 16 yards and Drew Temple took it in for a 5 yard TD and Spencer Peterson made the PAT and Jags were ahead 20-0. This was a 86 yard drive and the line with Korbin Spangler, Clay Lambert, Hayden Greene, Joe Kauffman and Nick Field controlled the line of scrimmage.

ELC put their only scoring drive together on a 12 play drive to make the score 20-6 with less than 40 seconds on the clock.

It would have been real easy to take a knee and head into half but the Jags were aggressive and had Casey Hanson run a quick counter for 25 yards and then ELC got a 15 yard penalty and then as time expired on the clock Mason Bahr hit Colin Johnson for a 28 yard TD and Spencer Peterson made the PAT and this was huge going into half up 27-6

 The Jags came out and on play 2 threw a pick 6 and just like that ELC was back in the game.

Jags came right back with 7 straight runs from Casey Hanson and Drew Temple and then Casey Hanson ran it in from the 11 for the TD

ELC tried fighting back but Byrce Harrison had an INT to get the ball back to the offense but the Jags could not get the first down they wanted and had to punt for the first time of the game.

The defense stuffed them again with great play from the D-Line with Josh Martens, Joe Kauffman, Korbin Spangler and Middle Linebacker play from Deegan Brandel and Drew Temple stuffing the middle and Ian Brunner and Nick Field stuffing the outside runs.

The Jags put on their last drive together and Mason Bahr scored on a 11 yard run.

This was a great win for the boys.

Next Week the boys take on Number 1 ranked Caroll Kuemper who has won back to back District Championships. The boys will have their hands full but they need to believe they can beat them and they can if they play like they do in some of these games the last few weeks.
