/in /by

MCDONALD OH- McDonald was coming off an impressive win over Mineral Ridge this week, and kept their momentum going by conquering Sebring 41-26.

The Devils hot things going on their first possesion of the game as Logan Hawk found the endzone. However, Sebring would shock everyone as they heavy run style offense found success threw the air. Carter Holodnak caught a 16 yard pass to make it a 7-6 game. The Blue Devils scored on their next two possessions with touchdowns from the legs of Nathan Gilligan.

The Trojans would not surrender though, as Noah Frederick exploded for back to back 50 plus yard touchdown runs to turn the game to a 21-20 Blue Devil lead. McDonald would answer with a touchdown, force a turnover, and then find pay dirt again. With those two blows, the Blue Devils put the game away.

McDonald is now on a two game winning streak and will look to keep it alive in Week 6 as they travel to Western Reserve. Sebring will look to bounce back on Friday as they host Jackson Milton.
