agreed that our ModelTowners had so much energy and were just capitalizing the ball every time they had it. Devin Dachs really showed that burst of energy as he made the best play of the game running a whopping 78 yards and scoring a touchdown! The Eagles made a touchdown in this quarter as well.

There was just so much outstanding effort by the coaches and the players of our Gwinn ModelTowners. The Stephenson Eagles played great as well. Our final score of the night was 44-20 with our ModelTowners taking the win. Roger and Gordy brought you all of the action on 103-FXD and GoToGwinn.com.
