Four straight weeks of frustration ended in a big way Friday night as an inspired Falcon team dispatched the Rochelle Hornets 78-28 at Falcon Field. It was an inspired effort throughout the game. Fueled by a huge crowd, and motivated to represent their school, Veribest took control of the game in the first quarter. Laureano Sanchez, who finished the game with 225 yards rushing, capped off an impressive opening drive with a seven yard touchdown run. Chris Buck added the two point conversion, and the Falcons led 8-0. On their next possession, Veribest once again scored, this time on a Ubando five yard carry. Leading 22-14 in the second quarter, Sanchez rumbled 38 yards to stretch the margin to 30-14. Cris Broz and Chris Buck hooked up on two touchdown pass plays, while Sanchez added another score on a 46 yard run in the fourth quarter. The night ended a bit early, as Veribest 45'ed Rochelle in the final minutes of the game. Congratulations to the Falcons on their great win! Next week, Veribest goes to Eden to take on the Bulldogs in a key district match-up. Game time is a 7:30 pm.
