Spring Hill outlasts Tonganoxie High football in league clash
The Tonganoxie High football team just couldn’t quite pull off the road victory this past Friday at Spring Hill.
THS trailed, 28-10, at halftime, but chipped away at the Spring Hill lead in the second half.
Tonganoxie cut it to 28-23 with 9:52 left in the fourth quarter and then actually took the lead, 29-28, with 6:04 left in the fourth quarter.
Spring Hill, though, would respond with its first points since the first half. The Broncos went up 36-29 with 2:59 left in regulation. The Chieftains weren’t able to answer one last time and SHHS held on for a Frontier League victory.
Tonganoxie fell to 0-1 in conference play and 1-1 overall. THS will look to get back in the win column this Friday with its homecoming game against Chanute. The Comets are 2-0 after defeating Augusta, 42-21, in Week 1 and then Pittsburg, 27-0, in Week 2.
