Longhorns cut down Hawks 60-6

The Logan football team had little trouble controlling host Dulce during a 60-6 Longhorns non-district victory Friday in eight-man football action.

The game ended at halftime due to the mercy rule. Logan led 46-6 after one quarter.

The Longhorns improved to 5-1 overall. The Hawks fell to 1-3.

Logan coach Dwayne Roberts hadn’t compiled stats when contacted by phone Saturday but estimated that quarterback Kaeden Stoner threw for up to 300 yards against the Hawks.

Those who scored TDs for the Longhorns were Stoner, Christian Kotara, Brock Burns, Devin Kotara and Park Strong.

“It was a good game,” Roberts said. “We spread the ball quite a bit and threw it well … a good team effort.”

Logan begins district play this week, and it starts with a difficult foe right away. The Longhorns host Clayton (5-1) at 7 p.m. Friday for its Homecoming matchup.

The Yellowjackets lost 50-0 to top-ranked Fort Sumner-House on Friday but still are ranked sixth in MaxPreps.com. Logan is ranked fifth.

“We’re in the meat of our schedule now,” Roberts said. “We have to take it one game at a time and take care of business. The next few games will determine where we are at the end of the year.”
