The first points on the board in the Sacred Heart High School Saints’ game against the Broadview Bandits belonged to the Saints, with a field goal putting them up three.

Unfortunately, that lead would be the last time the Saints were on the top of the board, as Broadview quickly responded with a touchdown, and didn’t stop. The final score was 39-3.

Coach Nick Jonassen said that it was the same struggle the Saints have had all season, as the team has been dealing with illness and injuries leading to a short bench. 

“We weren’t ready to play today.”

The Saints have a bye week this week. Jonassen hopes the time gives the team a chance to regroup and gives players a chance to heal and put in a stronger performance to end the season.

“One of our key guys, Matthew Cochrane, has been out and he’s slowly coming back,” Jonassen said.

Either way, the Saints will have a challenge on their hands when they come back on Oct. 11, as the team will meet up with Foam Lake, who Jonassen describes as one of the strongest teams in the league.
