Ponderosa dropped down to 6-4 on Thursday, ending the team's three-game streak of wins. They lost 35-14 to the Heritage Eagles.

As for Heritage, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five games. That's provided a nice bump to their 7-3 record this season. Considering they have won four contests by more than 20 points this season, Thursday's blowout was nothing new.
Heritage's victory was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Mo Thenell, who rushed for 175 yards and a pair of touchdowns while picking up 7.3 yards per carry. Thenell also punched in two rushing touchdowns, which is notable because the Eagles are undefeated when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns, but 1-3 otherwise. Cooper Schwartz also helped out as he racked up 123 rushing yards.
Looking ahead, Ponderosa will face off against Silver Creek at 6:00 p.m. on the 7th. The Mustangs will be up against the Raptors' rather soft defense (which has allowed 27.89 points per matchup), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance. Heritage does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
