Hanson defeats Berwick

Berwick hosted the Hanson Tigers for their second home game of the year. Last year, Berwick lost to Hanson and the result was the same this year.
Hanson won 26-13 Friday.
Berwick started the game with a 7-0 lead. The offense progressed its way up the field, and then quarterback Vincent Dohman found Carter Dupuis over the middle for a 40-yard touchdown.
Hanson then responded quickly after a 6-yard receiving touchdown by Trey Rochel. Hanson would miss the point after, making it a 7-6 ball game with Berwick in the lead.
It looked like Berwick was going to extend its lead as time was winding down in the first quarter. Maddox Sampey had a 30-yard run to get within scoring range. Berwick was able to make it all the way inside the 10, but after a fourth down fumble Hanson got the ball right back.
After the fumble the Tigers went on to score 19 unanswered points, with quarterback Spencer Fuhrer running for two touchdowns and throwing for one. The receiver on his touchdown pass was Riley Rineholt.
Berwick would shut Hanson out in the second half and added a score of its own. Sampey would run it in from 18 yards out.
On the scoring drive, the Panthers had key catches from Layf Bella and Miguel Melendez.
Next week the Panthers play the Thrive Academy Bulldogs at home.
