The San Manuel Junior High football team traveled over to Hayden last week and handed them a 40 – 0 shut out. The defense did not give up a first down and the offense scored on their first four possessions.
The scoring was spread among five miner running backs: Frank Renteria, Joseph Lopes, Luis Lopez, Isidro Wasko and Stephen Faulstich all contributed touchdown runs.
The defense was led by Kyle Yonkin and Michael Sanchez.
Coach Dave Jungbluth said, “I was pleased with the team’s effort but the team will need to play better if they are to compete against Globe this coming Wednesday.”
The Miners will host the Globe Tigers today at 6 p.m.
