Junior High, JV Salvage Respect with Wins over Panthers

Worth County's Junior High and JV teams salvaged some respect with a pair of blowout wins against Mound City last Monday night. The focus of the games was on getting some respect back following the 58-10 drubbing handed out to the varsity by Mound City. The Junior High did their part with a 46-0 halftime win over Mound City. It started with the entire front line. Dakota Gross started for the group for the first time this year and played strongly along with Issac Alarcon, Cade Allee, and Drake Kinsella. On the other side of the ball, Cade Allee threw a long touchdown strike to Tevin Cameron while Drake Simmons played strongly on both sides of the ball. Jayden Mancuso scored the great bulk of the touchdowns for the Junior High while Jordan Huntsman scored with 20 seconds left in the half to trigger the 45-point rule. Tevin Cameron added a punt return for a touchdown while Cade Allee ran for another.

The JV finished off the nightcap with a 56-10 win that was a near-reversal of the varsity loss. Chris Alarcon started at quarterback and his speed was the key for the Tigers as his legs set up everything else. Tristan Miller played well up front for the Tigers. Nate Pointer, Wade Rush, Chris Alarcon all rushed for touchdowns in the win. Chris Alarcon added two touchdowns through the air, one to Johnny Carlson and one to Andrew Freemeyer, who also caught an extra point pass.
