The Nighthawks won by a score of 68-20. The scoring started quickly, on the first possession for Hettinger/ Scranton Braxton Yates

Sanford would add 62 rushing yards to that total. Yates was 7 for 11 in the passing game for 164 yards with Kludt being his number one receiver with four receptions, good for
