Mennonites Douse Fairies Flame



The Mennonites used a solid game plan and took advantage of 3 Fairy turnovers in the 4th quarter to earn a 38-27 victory. Billy Bob Weisser had a stellar game, throwing 8-12-0 for 202 yards and a TD for the Amish. Johnny Holmes had 97 yards rushing and a score for San Francisco, but his fumble on a 4th quarter kick return proved to be the pivotal play of the game.

The two teams battled back and forth, with the lead changing hands several times. San Francisco took a 24-17 advantage going into the final quarter, but Luthar Lamp tied the game on a 18 yard scamper. The Fairies got into the red zone, but had to settle for a Pat Medown field goal to make it 27-24. Lamp found the end zone once again to put the Mennonites back in front, 31-27. Holmes fumbled the ensuing kick off, and Weisser found a wide open Steve ‘Stone Cold’ Austin in the end zone for the final score. The Fairies had 2 more chances to try and rally back, but both drives ended in interceptions.

Speedy Ezekiel finished with 88 yards on the ground and 40 yards receiving for the ‘Nites. Tommy Cruise was 6-11-2 for 147 yards and a score to lead San Francisco. Barney Frank had 5 tackles to lead the Fairies, while Deoder Yoder and Abraham John each had 3 tackles and an interception for the Mennonites.
