After having lost a blowout in their previous game against Ravenna, Shelby was happy to have turned things around on Friday. They claimed a resounding 50-7 win over the Hesperia Panthers. The Tigers have beaten the Panthers the last four times they've met, but they better watch out: this was the closest the Panthers has come to flipping the script.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Shelby to victory, but perhaps none more so than Brody Fessenden, who rushed for 92 yards and two touchdowns. Fessenden also deserves a shoutout for his performance on D, making ten total tackles and defending one pass. Jaylin Henderson was in the mix as well, providing Shelby with two scores.
Shelby didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off three passes before the game was over. It was truly a group effort as Isaac Garcia, Henderson, and Trevor Weiss picked up one apiece. Garcia got in on the action too, converting a pick into a touchdown.
Shelby now has a winning record of 3-2. As for Hesperia, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 1-4.
Looking ahead, Shelby is taking a road trip to square off against Muskegon Catholic Central at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Tigers will be up against the Crusaders' rather soft defense (which has allowed 28.2 points per matchup), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance. As for Hesperia, they will host Ravenna at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The Bulldogs' defense has only allowed 13 points per game this season, so the Panthers' offense will have their work cut out for them.
