The Carlisle Indians are on a roll!

The Carlisle Indians Football program has started the season 3-0 for the first time in 7 years. With wins coming over Franklin, Brookville, and now Oakwood.

The game though in the first half did not come easy for the Indians. They started off the game with a comfortable 14-3 lead but Oakwood stormed back and took a 17-14 lead. But then there was a kick off.

Jordan "Juke Ya" Jacobs takes the kick off return 95 yards for an Indian score. Then the Indians defense comes alive and forces Oakwood to punt. Punting to Jacobs proved to be the wrong answer again. Jacobs took the punt 80 yards for another touchdown score. Halftime score Indians 34, Oakwood 17.

The second half the Indians offense could not be contained. Nick McGill ran the ball and caught the ball at will. McGill ran for 95 yards rushing and 78 yards receiving adding two touchdowns. Jake Gibson through for 4 touchdowns one to start off the second half. In the fourth quarter Coach Jewell gave his starters a break but that did not stop the intensity on the field. Alex Leach came in at quarterback and had about a 40 yard keeper play for a touchdown.

The Indians won the game 54-17. The Defense after the first half never gave Oakwood a chance to score again. With a Koogle interception and a strong 4th down and 2 defensive stance the Indians never let up!

Our Indians start their SWBL Buckeye league games next Friday against defending champ Waynesville. Waynesville was the preseason favorite to win again this year but after the impressive start to the season many people are thinking this is Carlisle's year!!

GO INDIANS!!
