Panthers Wear Down Fonda 47 – 0
by Steve Bradley
Last Friday, the HFCS Panthers travelled to their home away from home, Stillwater H.S., to meet the Fonda Braves in Section II quarterfinal action. The weather was perfect for late season football, and the HF fans turned out in big numbers to support their team.
After HF kicked off to the Braves, the Braves made little progress and punted. On the first play from scrimmage, quarterback Billy Pine found Josh Brogue on a short pass route across the middle. Brogue turned on the afterburners and didn’t stop until he was in the end zone. One play … sixty-three yards … HF – 6, Fonda – 0.
