Nokomis had to start their season on the road on Friday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They lost 32-12 to Wells. While losing is never fun, Nokomis can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Maine football rankings (they are ranked 41st, while Wells is ranked seventh).
When it comes to explaining why Nokomis lost, don't look at Seth Bowden. Despite the final result, he rushed for 84 yards and one touchdown.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Wells to victory, but perhaps none more so than Noah McDonough, who threw for 67 yards and a pair of TDs on only five passes, and also punched in one score on the ground. Darion Lemont was in the mix too, providing Wells with two touchdowns.
We've got plenty of inter-region action coming up soon. Nokomis will challenge rival York at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday. Meanwhile, Wells is set to square off against their familiar foe Hermon at 6:00 p.m. on Friday.
