Aggressive offense lifts TL over Delphi

A second half blitz lifted Twin Lakes junior varsity over Delphi on Saturday. Final score was 46-13.

The Oracles came out to play and led the first half 7-0. The Oracle defense completely shut down the Indians' attack. The second half was a different story. The Indians scored 46 points to the Oracles' 6.

The Oracles scored first on a 7-yard Dustin Salyer pass to Tanner Cripe. Dayton Rummell added the kick for a 7-0 score. In the fourth quarter the same connection of Salyer to Cripe hit a 15- yard TD pass and the attempt for two failed.

The Oracles are now 1-3 on the season.
