Alex Garcia, Sports Editor

The Chaparrals won their final home against Hocking College in a blowout victory. This was a necessary win for the Chaps because of it being the final home game of the season. This was important because now they will go into the next season with a two game win streak. They had an explosive last game and won in style.

The Chaps won the game by putting up 39 points, and keeping the Hocks to only 6 points.

The Chaps displayed what made them such a threat to play: a defense that can do their job and put up points,a strong run game, and their biggest advantage, consistent teamwork. The Chaps started off the game with a touchdown drive that showed off the intensity and style the Chaps would play with all game. The steak in the heart came when Marcus Jester burst through the offensive line and broke free for a 48-yard rushing touchdown.

The offense was putting up points, racking up the yards, and picking on the defense on the ground and through the air. The would go on to score four of the five touchdowns the Chaps had. The other? A gift from the defense.

The defense held the Hocks in place for the whole first half, getting two interceptions, and even stopping the Hocks twice on fourth down..

The other touchdown came from a interception by Troy Berlee that he ran all the back for a  touchdown.

They weren’t able to get the shutout victory, but keeping the team to only 6 points is an impressive feat.

The win put the Chaps at 5-4 for the season with one game left on the schedule. .

The Chaparrals came up big when it counted in their final home game and will go to finish the season playing against Iowa Western.
