| | | | |
EXIRA -- The gridiron merger of Elk Horn-Kimballton/Exira got off on the right foot Friday night as the Spartans scored the first 19 points of the game and cruised by Sidney, 47-22, in 8-Player, non-district action.
EH-K/Exira led 39-6 at one point in the third quarter on a night when quarterback Carson Smith fired three touchdown passes and also scored on a keeper. Smith's TD strikes all found Devin Lickteig on the receiving end, good for 24, 13 and 32 yards.
Running back Eric Johnson ignited the Spartans less than two and a half minutes into the game with a 68-yard touchdown burst and later scored from five yards out. Garrett Wilson added a short touchdown run as well.
EH-K/Exira will travel to Hamburg this Friday night for a 7:30, non-district kickoff.
