23 yards to give the team a
first and goal from the two.
Putnam ran it in from there
to give the team a 13-0 lead.
The Heppner defensive
line led by Patrick Collins,
JC Putnam. John Propheter
and Ethan Ashbeck held the
Bulldogs down all night
long. They forced another
three and out, and the
Mustangs got the ball again.
A nice 22-yard touchdown
pass from q u arterb ack
Kaden Clark to Rill made
the score 19-0. T h e PAT
run by Weston Putman then
made it 21-0. On the very
next Bulldog possession.

plays later, Clark passed to
Corbin 25 yards for another
Mustang touchdown. The
Corbin kick made the score
28-0 at the end of the first
quarter.
The Mustang defense
had stro n g play from
l i n e b a c k e r s T r e s to n

and Weston Putman. They
helped hold the Bulldogs to
a total of 21 yards of offense
for the game. The second

plays ended with a Rill
touchdown from 23 yards
out. The Corbin PAT made
the score 35-0.

the blocking was good
and Kevin M urray had
several big runs. The team
scored on a four-yard run
by Kolby Currin. The PAT
pass from Logan Grieb
to Caden Hedman made
the score 43-0. The young
defense had a “bend but
don't break” attitude and
held the Bulldogs out of the
end zone. They controlled
the rest of the game w ith
some strong running plays
and ran the clock out to give
the Mustangs the 43-0 win.
