3 big plays on the drive, 2 30+ yard passes and a 19 yard Scottie Williams run.  3 yard TD rush for Williams.

Gotta love the one-play scoring drives!  Gallik to Garvey for a 49-yard TD on first play after a Carthage punt.  As Q noted, that makes it 17-0 early in the 2nd quarter.

[Mugsy]

Wheaton has a history of really slow starts in Elmhurst.  They'd better avoid that trend today.  They can't keep looking to late game heroics over an improved Elmhurst squad.

Wheaton pounds the rock.  7 rushes for 75 yards.  45 yard TD run by Velling.  7-7 in Elmhurst.

After a good kick return and two straight 1st down plays (including 15 yard rush by Scottie's brother), Elmhurst already nearing the redzone.

Looks like Wheaton defense missed the bus.  Elmhurst at the Wheaton 9 yard line in just 5 plays.
