YAKIMA - Eisenhower jumped out to a 20-0 lead on Moses Lake Friday, and never looked back as the Cadets beat the Chiefs 46-21.
"We got off to a slow start points-wise," coach Todd Griffith said. "But I thought the kids played great. We stopped them on their first possession with a tough goal line stand, and got the ball back on our 4-yard line."
Eisenhower got two scores in the first quarter of play on a 2-yard run by Trevon Harris, and a 26-yard pass from Kolney Cassel to Darius
Pati to go up 13-0.
The Cadets stuck again at the beginning of the second quarter on a 12-yard pitch and catch from Cassel to Taran Hernandez to push to score to 20-0.
Moses Lake narrowed the gap, 20-7, on a 51-yard touchdown scamper by Cameron Law.
"That was a nice run by Cameron," Griffith said. "It got us back in the game at that point."
Eisenhower got one more score before the half on a 32-yard run by Harris, his second of the game, to go up 27-7 at the break.
The Chiefs were shut out
