The Indians defense held Perry to under 20 yards of offense as the #2 Indianola football squad won in dominating fashion 63-0 in a game heard live on 94.3 KNIA. The game was all Indians from start to finish, with Bennett Brueck throwing touchdown passes to Carter Erickson, Drew Kingery, and Johnny Menke in the first quarter, with Micah Duey also returning a punt to lead 28-0 after the first. Brady Blake threw a 37 yard touchdown to Walker Whalen in the second quarter, with Erickson getting a pick-six to grow the lead to 42- 0 at the halftime break.
The starters didn’t see the field again with running clock the entire way, with Eli McDonald, Josh Eilers, and Eli Fox adding rushing touchdowns. Head coach Eric Kluver tells KNIA Sports it was an all-around good night from the fans to the players to the coaches.
“We wanted to come out and play a clean ball game and I think we did that, so I give our guys credit. And I give our coaches credit, there were a lot of substitutions with guys coming in and out. Things that you don’t practice on a regular basis. I’m just happy with the staff, the players, and the program in general.”
The Indians improve to 5-0 on the season and 1-0 in district play, and will next play on the road at Warren County rival #9 Norwalk.
