The Pirates are now on a two-game winning streak and will be at home on Friday.

Kaplan wins second straight game

RAYNE — It is not hard to figure out why the Kaplan Pirates have won two straight games.
Look at the offense, the number of yards it gains, and the number of points it’s producing.
When you produce just over 800 total yards of offense in eight quarters and score 37 points a game, those two things should equal a win.
Kaplan scored 20 points in the season’s first two games and lost.
Kaplan head coach Cory Brodie attributes the turnaround to one thing — maturing.
“We just had to be patient,” he said. “We have a lot of young guys and players in new positions. We are rolling now.”
Kaplan entertains Beau Chene (1-3) for homecoming this Friday.
It was a close game after the first quarter, with Kaplan leading 6-0. Quarterback Raine Mire had a one-yard TD run at the 6:48 mark.
Mire would score two more TDs in the second period, giving KHS a 20-0 halftime lead.
Other Pirate TDs were Caden Campisi scoring from the four and Jed Devoltz scoring from the 18.
Campisi had his typical night — 34 carries for 177 yards and one score.
Brayden Bearb had 15 carries for 64 yards, while Mire ran it seven times for 45 yards.
Devoltz also had four carries for 42 yards and one TD.
Mire also had a big night throwing the football. He completed seven out of 12 passes for 75 yards and one TD.
Andre Marceaux caught three passes for 15 yards. Carter Petry had two catches for 31 yards.
Ramy Broussard had a two-yard TD reception, while Campisi had one catch for 27 yards.
