BY TORY DUNCAN

It’s no secret that defense has been a strong suit for the Sutton Mustangs this season, as the Mustangs recorded their fourth shutout win of the 2018 campaign. Sutton traveled to Kearney Catholic High School Sept. 28, and handed the Class C-1 Stars a 36-0 thumping to improve to 5-1 on the season.

It proved to be the first shutout loss for the Stars since a 42-0 blanking at Hastings St. Cecilia on Sept. 3, 2010.

Sutton held Kearney Catholic to a mere 135 yards of total offense, while the Mustang offense scorched the Stars for 455 total yards in the win.

Starting quarterback Jackson Perrien sliced up the Kearney Catholic defense on a 36-yard touchdown sprint with 7 minutes to go to lift Sutton to an 8-0 lead, following a Brett Simonsen twopoint conversion run in the first quarter.

The Harvard Cardinals improved their record to 5-0 on the season with an 82-32 victory over Heartland Lutheran Friday evening, but this time with a different game.

The team, known for its rushing efforts, changed things up to show off the passing game this week. “So far this season, we’ve been running the ball a lot and we’ve found a groove that way,” Head Coach Scott Trimble said. “This week we wanted to come out and show our throwing to give that game some reps. We want to give other teams more to think about when they think of us.”

The Cards completed 8 of 10 passes for 176 yards against Heartland Lutheran, but added an additional 279 yards of rushing on 27 carries.
