(BRITT) — Trevor Bouma scampered 30 yards for a clinching touchdown with 1:33 to play Friday night to lead number-two Gehlen Catholic to a 38-28 win over top-rated West Hancock in non-district football at Britt. It was Bouma’s third touchdown of the night as he also added TD jaunts of five and 79 yards while rushing for 263 yards on 20 carries. The game featured seven lead changes as the two combined for 775 yards of offense. West Hancock led 14-13 at halftime but Gehlen scored on all four second half possessions to rally for their third win of the season. Zach Wurth threw for three touchdowns while connecting on 5-of-9 passes for 196 yards. Alec Mousel hauled in TD passes of 37 and five yards while catching three passes for 91 yards. Mick Sitzmann’s 24 yard TD catch with 6:42 to play erased a 28-25 deficit and put Gehlen ahead to stay. Blake Wiltgen’s interception at the Gehlen 39 yard line set up Bouma final touchdown. Chris Schleuger ran for three touchdowns for the Eagles, who fall to 2-and-1 for the season. Gehlen comes home for the first time this season next Friday night when they host SE Webster-Grand.
(LE MARS) — Storm Lake rattled off the final 22 points of the fourth quarter to erase a 27-26 Le Mars lead as the Tornadoes beat the Bulldogs 48-27 Friday night in the district opener for both teams at Jim Lorenzen Field. The loss drops Le Mars to 0-and-3. The Bulldogs again started fast with Gabe Rahn returning the opening kickoff 85 yards for a touchdown. Rahn broke a 7-all tie late in the first quarter with a 21-yard run. Storm Lake quarterback Nic Seaman ran for a touchdown and threw for another to give the Tornadoes a 20-14 lead only to have Levi TeBrink hit Kolin Brooks on a 26-yard scoring pass as Le Mars took a 21-20 lead to the locker room at halftime. Seaman connected on another scoring pass after halftime but TeBrink and Brooks hooked up again for the Dogs on a 22-yard pass for a 27-26 lead going into the fourth quarter. Aaron Krier ran for two touchdowns, his second and third of the game, and Nic Seaman threw his third TD pass of the contest as the Tornadoes reeled off 22 unanswered fourth quarter points. Le Mars travels to Spencer next Friday night in a game that will be carried on KLEM.
