Highland Home defeated Calhoun 56-28 last week.

Head coach Gregg Baker credited the hard-fought win to a strong team effort.

Quarterback Chase Mansmann was 6-for-9 for 150 yards and three touchdowns.

Kirk Merriweather had three receptions for 117 yards and two touchdowns.

Brandon Strength earned three touchdowns for the night.

Dillon Harris had seven tackles and an interception.

The Squadron also had five picks.

Highland Home will travel to Goshen Friday night. Baker said the game will be a crucial one.

“I know we have to win this one to get into the playoffs! That is our focus. That was one of our pre-season goals,” he said.

The team took to the practice field with that purpose in mind.

“We aren’t changing anything just working to correct mistakes and get better,” Baker said.
