\"\"<\/a>The West Central Trojans and Sioux Falls Christian Chargers endured a two-hour weather delay before they were able to start the football game on Friday, September 11th in Hartford.\u00a0 The Chargers pulled away late in the fourth quarter for a 28-0 win.<\/p>\n

The two teams were ready to get to action at normal time.\u00a0 The national anthem had just completed, and the teams were meeting for the coin toss.\u00a0 At that time lightning struck in the area, and kickoff didn’t happen until 9:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

The Chargers scored late in the first quarter.\u00a0 With 1:05 to go, they scored on a four-yard run.\u00a0 The extra point was good for a 7-0 lead.\u00a0 The score remained 7-0 at halftime.\u00a0 Sioux Falls Christian struck again with 8:13 to go in the the third quarter.\u00a0 This time the touchdown was scored on a 15-yard pass.\u00a0 Another extra point pushe the lead to 14-0.<\/p>\n

The score did not change again until just under four minutes to play in the game.\u00a0 The Chargers scored on a one-yard run with 3:57 to go in the fourth quarter.\u00a0 They added one more late score on a 22-yard run with 1:23 remaining on the clock.\u00a0 Both extra points were made for the 28-0 final score.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
