In a game of big plays, New Richmond had too much firepower for Wilmington Friday night, spoiling the Hurricane’s 2018 Homecoming, 56-30.

New Richmond improves to 5-1 overall, while the Hurricane falls to 3-3 on the season.

Wilmington was its own worst enemy, committing four turnovers, including three interceptions, plus one lost fumble.

New Richmond took a 7-3 lead in the first and capitalized on a pair of long-gainers to build a 21-3 lead mid-way through the second quarter. Lions’ quarterback Luke Lytle hooked up with Jack McDonough on a 62-yard touchdown pass and he connected with Jacob Duty on a 69-yard scoring strike with 4:30 remaining.

Wilmington came back with a late touchdown in the final minute of the half, when Brady Evans hit Cam Coomer from four yards out. Brady Henry’s PAT made it a 21-10 margin at halftime. Josh Anderson scored the first of three rushing touchdowns early in the third and eventually the Lions moved out to a 35-10 lead.

Wilmington fought back with a touchdown in the final minute of the quarter when Willie Morris scored on a four yard rush. The Hurricane was successful on the two-point conversion as Evans found Mason McIntosh in the corner of the end zone, 35-18.

After a pair of Anderson’s TDs, Evans and Coomer connected again then Evans and Ryan Camp reached paydirt to make it 49-30.
