McMINNVILLE, Ore. -- The Loggers conclude their road trip with a 77-3 loss to #20 Linfield, heading back home for one final game of the season against Whitworth.
How it Happened.
The Loggers got the ball to start the game, adn started to move the ball down the field. Sophomore quarterback
Brady Beck got the reigns to the offense once again, completing passes to
Kasey Williams and
Drake Granberry III to get the chains moving. After an incomplete pass on third down,
Thomas Goeglein saw his first punt of the day go 45 yards.
After another Goeglein punt, the Loggers got some momentum. The Wildcat's punt returner couldn't handle the ball cleanly, and
Josiah James made a great grab to secure the game's first turnover. With the ball in Linfield territory, the Loggers made a push, but couldn't connect, punting the ball away yet again.
From there, the Wildcats went on a prowl, putting up 28 points by the end of the first quarter. Nearing the end of the quarter, the Loggers got the ball back, and Beck found Williams for an impressive 20-yard pass play to get back in Wildcat territory. Williams went up between two defenders, hauling down a highlight play to get the Log rolling.
The second quarter was all Wildcats, as the Loggers found themselves down 63-0 at halftime. After giving up another touchdown to start the third quarter, the Loggers finally got some momentum on offense.
Cam Reed came in at quarterback, leading the Loggers down the field for their first points of the day.
Matt Reed got some action on the ground, setting up the air attack for
Cam Reed. Reed found Granberry III for a 10-yard gain, and the Loggers converted on fourth down to punch the ball into Wildcat territory. Reed found Whitfield for a 7-yard gain to set up a 4th and 1, handing it off to
Matt Reed who took the ball for 14 yards and a Logger first down. On the Linfield 23, the Loggers didn't come up scoreless, as
Junior Contreras Barragan drilled a 40-yard field goal.
The Loggers got a great stop to end the third quarter, giving the ball back to Reed at the start of the fourth. Starting at their own four, he found
Dillon Whitfield for a 12-yard gain. Despite getting the first down, the Loggers had to punt the ball away again after failing to convert the next set of downs. Goeglein had his longest punt of the day, though, kicking it 60 yards for his longest punt this season.
The Wildcats closed it out with a touchdown, ending the game at 77-3.
