Westonka falls to Zimmerman in section quarterfinals

Joseph Larson scored three rushing touchdowns to lead Zimmerman to a 49-19 victory over Westonka in the Section 6AAAA quarterfinals Oct. 27 at Thunder Stadium. Zimmerman quarterback Dylan Doherty added a rushing touchdown and a scoring pass as the Thunder ended the White Hawks’ season.

Unfortunately that wasn’t the way it went for us. With that, we are excited with the amount of experience a lot of our younger players got this season,” Westonka head coach Nick David said. The White Hawks’ defense provided an early spark by recovering a Doherty fumble on Zimmerman’s second possession. Senior defensive lineman Justin Avenson recovered the ball after Doherty scrambled to his left and lost control, giving Westonka possession in Thunder territory. The White Hawks were unable to capitalize, going three-and-out and punting. Gavin Johnson’s punt pinned Zimmerman at its 10-yard line, but the Thunder responded with an eight-play, 90-yard drive capped by Doherty’s
