The West Elk Patriots and head coach Ian Denton picked up a big win last Friday night, defeating the Udall Eagles 48-0.

 

After scoring eight points the week before against Cedar Vale, the Patriots got their offense going against Udall and came up with several long touchdown plays to build an early lead.

 

The Patriots also played a clean game, committing just one penalty and turning the ball over zero times. Denton says he was pleased with the way his offense spread the ball around, with six different players finding the end zone and gaining confidence along the way.

 

The Patriots will face rival Sedan this Friday, and Denton says his team will need to match the Blue Devils’ speed while continuing to take care of the football.

 

West Elk fell to Sedan 56-12 last season, and the Patriots will look to get revenge when they travel to face the Blue Devils in Week 3.
