BURLINGTON — Host Burlington Catholic Central opened its Division 7 title defense with Tuesday’s 35-14 Level 1 football win over Hustisford.
“They have a real nice squad again,” Hustisford coach Dan Simon said. “They’re solid on offense, solid on defense.
“It’ll take a real good team to beat them. They’re not real big but they have team speed all over the field.”
The Hilltoppers (9-1) took a 35-0 halftime lead. The Falcons (3-7) got a pair of scores, with the first coming on Ryan Connolly’s 46-yard fumble return.
Allan Fenner added a 2-yard touchdown run late in the contest. BCC held a 347-76 edge in total yardage.
“We only had five seniors but they’ve been in the playoffs all four years,” Simon said. “It’s a tribute to their hard work.”
Sam Wagner led BCC with 137 yards on 10 carries, two of which went for TDs.
