Bearcat rushing attack too much for Pirates

Posted by Fred Steiner on October 9, 2016 - 5:48pm

 

By Sam Brauen

It was easy to note Friday evening that Spencerville had the size advantage over Bluffton, especially along the lines.  But what became quickly apparent in the game’s first few plays is the Bearcats have an abundance of quickness as well.  Spencerville raced up and down the field through three quarters blowing out Bluffton 42-14.  SHS improved to 6-1 with the win, Bluffton fell to 3-4 with their third straight loss.
