Mules Keep Shutout Streak Alive; Beat Bearcats 42-0

weezel32

The Christopher-Zeigler-Royalton Bearcats, coached by former NFL star Anthony Hargrove, have been at the bottom of the Black Diamond for several years now. But Hargrove looks to have them moving in the right direction, as they had allowed just 41 points in their first three games. Justin Townsend’s Fairfield Mules put up 42 on them Friday at the Train Yard, while the defense of the home squad kept their shutout streak going with their fourth in a row to start the season. Aired It Out Fairfield, typically a ground-and-pound attack on offense, went to the air 13 times, with junior … Continue reading Mules Keep Shutout Streak Alive; Beat Bearcats 42-0

Mules Lose Tiebreaker To Aces; Playing Without Conrad

weezel32

The Fairfield Mules golf squad were playing shorthanded at home Tuesday, but still tied the visiting Aces of Mt. Carmel. The away team won the tiebreaker, however, with a better fifth score. The Mules were without senior Maverick Conrad, out with a low back injury. Either Conrad or junior Noah McElravy has led the Mules scoring in every match this year. With Conrad out, McElravy stepped up and took medalist honors, shooting a 36 to win by five strokes. He had bogeys on three and four, but bounced back with birdies on the par-5 seventh hole and the par-4 eighth … Continue reading Mules Lose Tiebreaker To Aces; Playing Without Conrad

Mules Move to 3-0 With Third Straight Shutout

weezel32

Sometimes, stingy can be a positive. Case in point, the Fairfield Mules’ defense. For the third straight week to open the season, Justin Townsend’s Mules did not allow a point and the Mule Train kept rolling with a 36-0 road win in Chester. Fairfield moved to 3-0 with the win. And while the stinginess is a continuation of a trend this year, they can add greediness to the repertoire as well, as the defense got in on the scoring act with two defensive touchdowns and a safety on the night. That helped supplement what is a pedestrian offering for this … Continue reading Mules Move to 3-0 With Third Straight Shutout

Freshmen Mules Maul Tigers In Olney

weezel32

Traveling to Olney for nonconference action Thursday, the freshman Fairfield Mules football squad moved to 2-0 with a 28-14 triumph over the Tigers of Richland County. Fairfield scored the first 22 points of the game, holding the host offense in check until late in the third quarter. Fairfield took the opening kickoff and drove to the Richland County seven-yard line before fumbling. That just delayed their first score, which came early in the second when quarterback Eric Rodgers (not Joe, not Joe, not Joe) found a streaking Jonah Easton in the middle of the field behind the safety for a … Continue reading Freshmen Mules Maul Tigers In Olney
