FB 2011-10-25 Freshmen vs Arlington

The Oak Harbor Freshman football team completed their season at home Tuesday evening with a 47-0 win over Arlington.

The Wildcats ran only 10 offensive plays in the first quarter, with 4 of them going for touchdowns as OH built an early 28-0 lead.

In the second quarter, two drives were stopped inside the Arlington 10 yard line, but the Wildcat scored on a 7-yard run with 2:14 left to boost the score to 34-0.

OH got the opening kick in the second half and used 10 plays to cover 54 yards to make it 41-0 and trigger a running clock for the remainder of the game.

The final OH touchdown came on a fumble recovery. Arlington fumbled on their own 13 yard line, and after the ball sat on the turf for a second or two, an OH player picked it up and ran straight up the middle for the score.

Arlington did move the ball late, moving the ball from the OH 48 down to the 6, but the clock ran out on the Eagle's chance to avoid the shutout.

The Freshman team ended the season with a 6-1 record. The team scored 282 points over their 7 games, an average of 40 points per game and allowed only 3 touchdowns. Two vs Pilchuck and one vs Everett.

Thursday the varsity team travels to Edmonds Stadium to take on the Meadowdale Mavericks. Both teams are undefeated and the winner will be WESCO 3A league champion.
