Catch Geno named “Player of the Game” in close match-up

The Sayre Eagles took on the Hooker Bulldogs at Eagle Field where they were upended by the score of 49 to 6 last Friday evening. The score does not reflect the exciting and disciplined play in the first half when the Eagles controlled 17 of the 24 first half minutes of the game clock by going on a pair of long distance drives of 14 and 21 plays each. The first one began at the Sayre 16 yard line following the opening kickoff and ended in a touchdown when Ayden Hendershot plunged into the end zone from 3 yards out. Hooker took the ensuing kickoff and 13 plays later matched the Eagle score when Justin Palacios carried the ball into the end zone from one yard out.

The Sayre Eagle football team traveled to Thomas to engage in their first district contest where they were tamed by the Terriers 40 to 16 last Friday evening. Thomas picked up the first of their 6 touchdowns on the night in the first quarter of play and added three more in the second quarter to take a 26 - 0 halftime lead over the Eagles.

Lexie Hanrahan put on a batting clinic for the Sayre Lady Eagles, going 3 for 3, against the Hooker Lady Bulldogs.
