What a way to start the 2012 gridiron season!

The Sauk Centre Mainstreeters football team had a wildly successful debut in the revamped West Central Conference in Granite Falls tonight.

Final score: Sauk Centre 46, Yellow Medicine East 6.

 Noteworthy statistics: Roosevelt Austin piled up 196 yards rushing on 17 carries, while Patrick Knoblauch earned 10-for-15 passing marks for 110 yards and no interceptions. The Mainstreeters scored 20 points in both the first and third quarters. Also, YME's score was earned in the first quarter after they fell behind 7-0 out of the gates. Six different Mainstreeters found the end zone. Finally, Sauk Centre won the turnover battle by a 4-1 margin.

The 1-0 Mainstreeters now gear up for another long road trip to Montevideo next Friday night. According to Minnesota-scores.net, the Thunderhawks are 0-1 after losing 42-0 tonight to Paynesville Area on their home field. The Bulldogs limited the Thunderhawks to 40 yards of offense from scrimmage. Ouch.
