Lake Park, Ia (Northwest Iowa Now) – Harris-Lake Park welcomed GTRA to town Friday night in 8-Player District 1 play.

The Titans ripped out of the starting blocks. Caleb Swedin picked up a 23-yard Touchdown run and caught a 47-yard Touchdown pass from Tegen Hanson. Hanson would connect on a 66-yard Touchdown pass to Jaxson Schnell late in the 1st quarter to make it 22-0.

All of the momentum gained in the 1st quarter only increased for GTRA in the 2nd, as the Titans posted 5 more Touchdowns, four of them passes from Teagan Hanson to Kenny Ness. The other came on a Jaxon Schnell 30-yard Touchdown run.

GTRA took a 56-0 lead to the half.

From there the clock was running, but that didn’t slow down the #7 ranked Titans, who scored 3 more times before the end of the game.

Harris-Lake Park got a 3rd quarter Touchdown from Tayten Huff on a 5-yard run. Huff scored late in the 4th quarter on a 15-yard run as well, bringing us to our final score of 74-14.

GTRA ran the ball well, with 6 different players getting multiple carries, combining for 134 yards. That was very much overshadowed by a dominant passing attack. Teagan Hansen completed 9 of 11 passes for 326 yards and 6 Touchdowns. 200 of those yards and all 6 Touchdowns were to Kenny Ness. Brooks Hansen also came in to complete 4 of his 6 passes for 90 yards and a Touchdown.

The Titans piled up 550 yards of total offense to Harris-Lake Park’s 243. Beckett Rahe was 9-18 through the air for 110 yards.

Harris-Lake Park finishes their season at 1-6.

GTRA caps off an unbeaten regular season at 8-0 and prepare for the 8-Player Playoffs where they will have a top 8 seed.
