The Atom Knights travelled to Mission last weekend to take on the Mission Niners. Knights offensive linemen, Tyson Caughy, and James Harder, kept the Niner defense at bay and gave running backs, Riley Rooney and Nicho Zolliker and opportunity to run for big gains along the sidelines as Rooney saw his first two touchdowns of the season.

Linebackers Isaiah Cavelli and Aiden Sanderson dominated the Mission offense, but a couple of broken plays put the Niners into the end zone twice as well.

A missed convert was all that kept the Knights out of the win column this weekend as the Knights fell to the Niners 13-12.

For the Peewee Blue team the defense was led by linemen Justin Nickel, Nathan Barr, Alex Trostheim, Avery Fitchett.

Declan Fitzpatrick controlled the line of scrimmage making it hard for Mission to run the ball inside.

The offence led by quarterback Tyler Spencer and running backs Evan Vasarhely, Liam Cumarasamy, and Brayden Hamilton had numerous long drives on the day with Brayden Hamilton scoring the only touchdown for Meadowridge.
