Pirate’s offense explodes in second half of season finale to win 38-14

Posted by Fred Steiner on October 28, 2012 - 8:57pm

By Bryan Kress
Whatever halftime speech or adjustments Head Coach Dennis Lee made sure seemed to work as the Pirates were down 14-10 at the half.

However, on another rainy Friday night the Pirates completely took the game over against a tough Columbus Grove team playing for their playoff lives, scoring four touchdowns in the final half of the season.

Bluffton led the yardage battle 258-201 as the defense played lights out for the second straight week and the offense had complete control on the ground as the team rushed for 258 yards.
