“We took a step forward today by getting back on the winning track,” said HKHS Head Coach Tyler Wilcox. “We still have things to work on, but I liked the way we got off to a fast start today by causing a safety and blocking a punt. We just have to stay focused as we prepare for some crucial games coming up on the schedule.”
The Cougars now enter a second bye week and will return to action on October 21st in North Branford.
