Cougars run past Grundy Center

GRUNDY CENTER – AGWSR broke open a close game with three second-quarter touchdowns on its way to a 36-13 opening-night victory over Grundy Center at Spartan Stadium.

The Cougars (1-0) built a 29-7 halftime lead on their way to their third victory over the Spartans in the teams’ last four meetings.

The cleanly-played game saw no turnovers and just one penalty longer than five yards. AGWSR did not have a penalty until its final drive on the night when it had many of its reserves on the field. Each team had one bad snap, and the Cougars survived a fumble into the Spartan secondary on their first scoring drive.
