Greensburg blanked by Cougars

The Pirates were blanked by Greenfield Central on Friday evening 57-0. The #9 Ranked Cougars earned their second shutout in as many games after taking out Madison 49-0 in week one.

Three opening quarter scores put Greenfield up early with a 21-0 lead. The Cougars added another 20 in the second stanza, putting Greensburg down 41-0 at the half. With a running clock, Greenfield added nine points in the third quarter, and a final touchdown in the fourth, gave the Bucs a 57-0 loss. The Bucs are now 0-2 to start the season.

The Cougars put up 198 rushing yards on Greensburg while GCHS could only muster 24, led by Kaden Acton who picked up 15-yards. Bryson Abplanalp added 13-yards rushing and threw for 24 more. Owen Meadows was on the receiving end of 20 of those yards on his two receptions. Meadows also led the defense with nine tackles. Brayden Ranklin and Elliott Weber each recorded a tackle for a loss. Myles McKinsey forced a fumble that was recovered by Junior Camden Loudin as a defensive highlight in the contest.

The Bucs will look to get it together when they travel to take on Connersville (1-1) this Friday. The Spartans lost to Franklin County this past Friday.
