 This year started off a little bit rough for the Brainer football team. They lost their first two matchups of the season, but only by a combined 16 points. And last week they topped Alexandria 36-7 in their first section matchup of the year. This week they hosted undefeated Salk Rapids Rice. Brainer's fans were fired up for this one. Warriors trailing 14-6, but Sam Miller is going to help the cause finding Patrick Gervanic. Over the middle he gets taken down at the one, but Brainer will punch it in to make it 14-12. Time winding down before half, Miller connects with Brandon Kramer for 6, 2-point conversion good. Warriors up 20-14 at the break. Brainer's defense came out hungry in the second half. Salk Rapids looking deep, but thrown into double coverage. Brady Anderson comes away with the pick for Brainer. Off of the turnover, Brainer gives it to Joe Klang. He bounces one out to the outside, great blocking downfield by Gabe Smith. Allows him to score, Brainer up 28-14. And then Klang would pay Smith back for the great blocking right here as Klang the running back finds Smith for 6 and that would put the game on ice for the Warriors. Brainer gets to win 34-14.
