The Conestoga Pioneers rolled over Owen J. Roberts to win the first football games of the season Friday night at Teamer Field.
Final: Conestoga 35 Owen J. Roberts 13
The scoring started early, after Owen J. Roberts fumbled the ball on the kick-off which allowed Conestoga to march down the field in a two minute offensive show of force and a touchdown less than two-and-a-half minutes into the game.
The Pioneers scored the only other TD of the first half with 1:50 left in the second quarter to take a 14-0 lead into the locker room.
OJR came out looking a little hungrier and a little more disciplined on defense in the third quarter, capitalizing on an interception at 7:18 in the third to get on the board.
The Pioneers came roaring back, dominating the rest of the way, including a 76 yard touchdown run by Eric Cook with just over a minute left in the third quarter.
In the end it was Conestoga 35-OJR 13.
