There were plenty of gaudy numbers for the Heritage Patriots Friday night when they roughed up Southern Wells for a 70-0 victory.
Seven turnovers.
70 points scored.
Seven different touchdown scorers.
Most importantly, the Patriots picked up win number seven at home.
It took exactly one offensive play for the Patriots to get on the board after Southern Wells attempted an onside kick to begin the contest. Lucas Weber made two cuts and ran through the Raider defense, scoring from 54 yards out. It was the longest play from scrimmage in the game from either side (see gallery below).
On the first offensive series for Southern Wells, Lucas Weber wedged the ball between himself and the SW receiver he was covering, grabbed the ball, then scampered home for a 33-yard pick six, putting the home team up 14-0 in just 97 seconds (See gallery below).
The game was over before it ever really started.
Eli Tigulis picked the Southern Wells secondary apart over the next 20 minutes, efficiently tossing five touchdown passes to five different receivers on just 133 yards passing.
The Heritage defense held Southern Wells to just one third-down conversion and they created seven turnovers, picking off three passes and forcing four fumbles. Lucas Weber had all three interceptions for the home side.
Cam Rauner converted all ten PAT attempts.
