For a second straight week, an opponent couldn’t put a point up versus Fillmore Central (4-2). It wasn’t without W-K (3-3) trying hard, at least on one (18-play) first half drive. The teams combined for three first half red zone trips. FC twice held from inside the 12. The intermission score was 0-0. All the scoring was by FC in the third quarter. The teal and black’s first drive went five plays, 62 yards. Brady Ristau’s 44-yard gallop set up a Josh Peters 5-yard TD run (7-0). Later, after a W-K fair catch at the two-yard-line, and after one punt attempt was negated by off-setting penalties, a second W-K attempt was snapped through the end zone for a safety (9-0). The Falcons took the ensuing free kick and went five plays, 43 yards. Ristau capped it with a 25-yard TD run (16-0). After allowing 158 yards in the first half, FC allowed just 40 in the second. Falcons-South won their fourth in a row, 16-0. Ristau (14-101, TD rushing), Peters (8-45, TD rushing; 4-39 receiving), Nate Haugerud (3-50 receiving), and Logan Corson (9-13, 96 yards passing) led the offense. Haugerud added his fifth interception (all in the last four weeks) and a fumble recovery. Ryli Tostenson had two recoveries. Trevor Timm (21-107 rushing; 9-13, 65 yards, INT passing) and Zach Kjeseth (4-54 receiving) led W-K. FC collected four turnovers. They have collected 16 in their four game win streak. The Falcons (4-2, 5-2) have given up seven TDs through seven games, with five coming in their two losses.
