FOOTBALL

St. Vincent 15, Cleveland NJROTC 6

Phillip Ernst made the most of his final game for the Indians.

The senior intercepted three passes and kicked three field goals to help St. Vincent end the season on a winning note.

"That's the way to go out," St. Vincent coach Paul Sauer said.

The Indians intercepted Cleveland five times in the contest, and one they returned for a score. Senior Nathan Comte picked off a pass in the first quarter and returned it to the end zone. Taylor Sauer also recorded an interception in the win.

"Our secondary played real well," coach Sauer said. "Justin Breig had four or five pass breakups. We've just kind of been struggling in the secondary all year and we finally put it together here at the end."

Mitchell Presnell led St. Vincent with 19 carries for 63 yards. Ryan Weissing finished with 13 totes for 36 yards, and Derek Joggerst added 22 yards on four rushes.

Taylor Sauer passed for 76 yards by completing four of his 12 attempts.

Adam Winkler hauled in two passes for 34 yards, while Ryan Boxdorfer caught one for 28 yards and Joggerst snared one for 14 yards.

"We definitely were happy to win that last one," coach Sauer said. "Now it's time to go to work for next year."

St. Vincent ended the season 3-7 overall and 1-2 in Class 1 District 2 play.
