Ground game pushes Toledo over Mossyrock

Posted

Behind their primary trio of ball carriers, the Riverhawks stomped the Vikings to move to 5-0 for the first time in nearly a decade with a 58-20 C2BL East victory on Friday night at home.

Carter Swofford, Eli Weeks and Nathan Beaver all finished with 70-plus yards on the ground with the latter pair scoring on 70 and 77-yard TD runs, respectively. Weeks also found Trevin Gale and Cole Langhaim for passing scores.

By the time the second half got underway, there was already a running clock. Toledo piled on the offense with 49 points in the first half. Adam Kruger had a pick-six and big man Nico Acosta ran back a kickoff for 77 yards to the house.

Mossyrock dropped to 1-4, 1-2 and will face Toutle Lake at home in Week 6 while the Riverhawks face Rainier on the road.
