Mullen picked up their first win of the season winning their home opener against Maywood Hayes Center 36-21. Mullen led 20-14 at the half as Jaylon Forsen completed touchdown passes to Alex Werner, Cayden Hampton, and Tate Kvanvig in the opening half. In the second half, Alex Werner had an 11 yard touchdown run, the Mullen defense collected a safety, and Tate Kvanvig scored on a 4 yard touchdown run with 3:13 left in the game to help secure the win. The Broncos racked up over 300 yards of total offense to improve to 1-1 on the season and will travel to North Central next Friday.
The Broken Bow football team fell just short in their home opener against Ogallala on Friday night at Mark Russell Field. Broken Bow jumped out first thanks to an interception by Coy Wardyn on Ogallala’s first possession which he returned to the six yard line. On Broken Bow’s first offensive play of the game, Wardyn would run it in to put Bow up 8-0. Ogallala responded with 14 unanswered points to take the lead. Trailing by six, Bow marched 63 yards and converted on 4th down and goal when Dominic Nowak connected with Braxtton Johnson on a 3 yard touchdown pass to tie the game. But on the ensuing kick, Sawyer Smith ripped off a 90 yard kick return for a touchdown which put Ogallala up 22-14 at the half. Broken Bow took advantage of an Ogallala muffed punt in the third quarter which they recovered at the Ogallala 16 yard line and later scored on a 1 yard Ayden Clark touchdown run to pull to within two. Broken Bow then recovered an onside kick which set up a 40 yard touchdown drive capped off by an Ayden Clark 9 yard touchdown run. However, the 2 point conversion was no good as Bow led 26-22. Ogallala was able to respond putting together a 65 yard touchdown drive scoring with 1 second left in the 3rd quarter making the score 28-26 going into the 4th. Neither team was able to put points on the board in the final quarter as Ogallala held on for the win. Broken Bow drops to 0-2 on the season and will travel to St. Paul next Friday.
