Fulton ambushes Blue Wave

Interior Junior Varsity Football League action

The Fulton Maroons ambushed the Westsyde Blue Wave of Kamloops 43-0 in Interior Junior Varsity Football League play Wednesday afternoon at Grahame Park.

The game was largely controlled by the Maroons ground attack but the opening drive was capped by a 23-yard touchdown pass from Colby Eisenhauer to Reyann Siddique. Eisenhauer played very well all day and completed another touchdown pass later in the second quarter to Van Kozak for a 40-yard catch and run.
