HOISINGTON 32,
NICKERSON 14
NICKERSON – Hoisington’s defense intercepted five passes and recovered a fumble to roll past mistake-prone Nickerson 32-14 in Friday’s Central Kansas League football game.
The state-ranked 4A-Div. 2 Panthers had two touchdowns called back on penalties and were flagged for 99 yards in penalties.
Hoisington tailback Sean Urban rushed for 153 yards, scored two rushing touchdowns and caught a TD pass from quarterback Mason Haxton, who scored on a touchdown run.
“That was a great win for this group,” said Hoisington coach Zach Baird. “They’ve shown remarkable improvement. It’s a great win heading to District play.”
Hoisington’s Rudy Gearhart and Jake Curtis intercepted two passes. Tanner Cassity intercepted a pass and Jared Curtis recovered a fumble. Gearhart contributed 12 tackles and Sean Urban and Jake Curtis 10 tackles apiece.
Gearhart intercepted a pass after a first-half Nickerson touchdown was nullified on a penalty.
“That was a big play right before halftime,” said coach Baird. “Getting six turnovers is phenomenal. Once we got the lead, it put Nickerson in a bad spot. Late in the game it forced them to be one dimensional. We work on passing situations every week in 7-on-7 drills.”
The Cardinals (4-2, 3-2 CKL) play Ellsworth at home Friday. Nickerson (4-2, 4-2 CKL) will play at Wichita Trinity next week.
“They were tougher than we were,” said Nickerson coach Mike Vernon. “We need to rise to the occasion and make plays. But I believe we are moving in the right direction.”
