9-Man Final: Houston 56, Ada-Borup 14
Posted on November 14th, 2008 – 10:10 AMBy Jon Marthaler
It’s hard not to be impressed with the Hurricanes after today’s performance. Coming into this week, most of the nine-man talk centered on Kittson County Central, which beat Stephen-Argyle in the section final and immediately became the favorite. The Bearcats take on Clinton-Graceville-Beardsley tomorrow morning, but at least for the moment, the winner of that second semifinal looks like a distinct underdog.
17 (!) different players carried the ball for Houston in this game; consider the Hurricane bench pretty much emptied. Those 17 ballcarriers racked up 351 yards on the ground on 43 carries; all told, Houston had 460 yards of offense.
The clock’s counting down to Royalton and Lake Park-Audubon; that game will kick off about 10:20 a.m.
