Wayzata fell behind 3-0, but since the Rosemount field goal midway through the first quarter, it’s been all Trojans.  A pair of long touchdown drives have Wayzata up 14-3.  Both of those possessions were capped off by Chris Kroeten, who has touchdown runs of 13 and 29 yards.

Apart from one long screen pass that set up the field goal, the Irish have been unable to get anything going offensively - and falling behind against Wayzata is not a good idea, especially when the Trojans seem like they’re rolling, like they do tonight.  Remember, QB Chase Vogler is playing with a broken left (non-throwing) hand for Rosemount, and the Irish can ill afford their leading rusher and passer to be playing at less than 100%.  Irish cornerback Jack Pauly did intercept a Wayzata pass with nine seconds to go in the half, but two shots at the end zone came up empty.

At least one of the Wayzata students is wearing a Santa hat tonight; the way things are going, Rosemount may need a few gifts from the Trojans to get back into this game.
