MARION — A couple of interceptions, a couple of safeties, a 33-point third quarter, and the Ashland Arrows picked up their first win of the season on Friday night at Marion Harding.
The Arrows pierced the Presidents 49-7, pulling away from a precarious 9-7 halftime edge in a second-half offensive avalanche.
The two teams were tied at the end of the first quarter, and a second-quarter safety gave Ashland the advantage at intermission.
But the Arrows unleashed an onslaught in the third period, capitalizing on turnovers and adding a pair of Nathan Bernhard touchdown passes.
Connor Ohl and Jonathan Metzger each had an interception to key the defense, while Landon McFrederick and Braeden Reymer chipped in TD catches. Cayden Spotts tacked on a 5-yard scoring run.
Metzger had another interception in the fourth period, and Alex Grissinger connected with Tyler Sauder on a 5-yard touchdown pass to polish off the Presidents.
The Arrows (1-1) host Buckeye Valley on Friday night.
