The Hancock football team had 304 yards of offense on Friday and held Rothsay to just 75 total yards in a 38-8 win over the Tigers.

Luke Joos scored the first touchdown of the night on a one yard pass from Davin Rose, giving the Owls a 6-0 lead.  Matt Thompson hauled in a 5-yard scoring toss from Rose and Rose ran the ball in for the two-point conversion, giving the Owls a 14-0 lead after one quarter.

In the second quarter, Davin Rose found the end zone on a one yard run and then connected with Jackson Koehl for the two-point conversion for a 22-0 lead.  They increased their lead to 30-0 at halftime when Chase Evink scored on a 10 yard run and added the two-point conversion.

Evink scored a third quarter TD on a one yard pass from Rose and Koehl ran in the two-point conversion to make it 38-0.  Rothsay got the final TD and two-point conversion of the night to make the final score 38-8,

"We came out and played a good game from the start," said Hancock Head Coach Chad Christianson.  "We were able to rotate some linemen in early to keep those guys fresh and see some different guys in quality minutes.  Defensively, the guys came out ready to play and executed everything we asked of them."

Hancock was led by Rose (9 completions, 19 attempts, 62 yards, 3TD’s), Evink (14 carries, 110 yards, TD), Koehl (4 carries 63 yards), Thompson (4 catches, 32 yards, TD) and Joos (4 catches, 29 yards, TD).  Koehl led the defense with 5 tackles.

The Owls will host Wheaton/Herman-Norcross next Friday.
