Ten total players recorded a sack for Ropes en route to the lopsided 62-7 district win over the Morton Indians.
The Ropes Eagles racked up a total of 15 sacks, with the upperclassmen of the linebacker core contributing two or more sacks: senior linebacker Cason Kucel, senior linebacker Jaivyth Cruz, senior linebacker Kaden Riker, and junior linebacker Britton Mitchell.
Ropes scored eight touchdowns from the running game, while gaining 315 yards through the ground. The rushing attack carried the load for their offense, passing for only six total yards.
Senior running back Zaydan Pittman led the run game with 130 yards, adding two touchdowns. Cruz was the second-leading rusher with 108 rushing yards and two touchdowns.
Opening their first two District 2-2A games with a +105-win margin, Ropes (7-0, 2-0) will look to earn another win over a district opponent, Seagraves (5-2, 1-1), at 7 p.m. on Oct. 23 at home in Ropesville.
