If you had other plans that evening, atleast you could get out of the stadium early and make both engagements.  Lancaster wasted no time dispatching of their purple foes.  Coach Carpenter's squad thwarted an early Logan drive and drove 80 yards on 7 plays to give the Gales an early lead.  Georgie Carpenter, the Gales senior fullback, had two gains of twenty yards on the drive and capped the opening scoring drive with an 11-yard touchdown jaunt. 

The route was on.  Logan went three and out on their second series, and the blue and gold responded with a shorter but equally efficient drive.  This time Carpenter scored from 8-yards out and added a successful two-point conversion to make up for Brian Widener's missed PAT.

Logan threatened twice in the half.  The previously mentioned opening Chieftain drive started when Lucas Wright nearly returned the game's opening kick-off for a touchdown only to be stopped at the midfield stripe.  Two pass completions to Wright and fullback Zak Gompf helped the Chieftains move to the Lancaster 20-yard line.  A screen pass to sophomore tailback Clay Morgan looked like a Chieftain touchdown, but a holding call negated the play but did give Logan a first down.  Unable to move the football, senior placekicker Kyle Kennard attempted a 35-yard field goal.  The attempt was tipped by the Gale line and fell short.

Following Lancaster's third touchdown, another Carpenter touchdown, Morgan ran for 36-yards on a 4th and 1 attempt and set Logan up for a possible score.  Logan would get no closer than 21-yards out and were stopped on fourth down when a screen pass to junior Mark Potter failed to convert.

Lancaster punctuated the half with a 39-yard spring by wingback Trent Crowell that gave the Gales a comfortable 28-0 halftime lead.

Logan started off the second half strong, holding the Gales on four downs and gaining posession on the Lancaster half of the field.  A 14-yard pass from Angle to tight end Tony Ellis brought the purple clad fans to their feet, but a fourth down pass attempt to  Wright was overthrown and another potential scoring drive was twarted.

Lancaster's Kyle Stoughton connected with tight end Collin Miller from 2-yards out to stretch the advantage to 35-0, and Widener converted on 1 of 2 30-yard field goal attempts to cap off the scoring.

Lancaster ran for 460 yards on 54 carries.  Carpenter led the onslaught with 22 carries for 163 yards and 3 touchdowns.  Crowell added 149 yards on 11 carries and a score, Jesse Reed ran for 77 yards on 6 carries, and Stoughton rounded out the starting backfield's total with 34 yards on  carries.

For Logan, sophomore Clay Morgan ran for 63 yards on 17 carries in his Varsity debut.  Junior fullback added 10 yards on 2 carries and classmate Corey Kissling had 8 on 1 carry.  Junior quarterback Michael Angle threw for 76 yards on 9-17 passes and was intercepted once.

Logan returns to action on Friday when they travel to Chillicothe, a 14-5 winner over Brookhaven.  Lancaster will host Columbus West.
