KIMBERLY – Homewood High School is rolling.
The Patriots gained nearly 500 yards of offense and blew past Mortimer Jordan 49-21 in Kimberly on Friday night.
Quarterback Will Myers was sensational, completing 13-of-19 passes for 340 yards and five touchdowns. Three of those touchdowns were received by Tomon Felton, who finished with four catches for 161 yards. Kylen Newell caught three passes for 130 yards and a touchdown in the Class 6A, Region 5 win.
“We exploded in the passing game tonight,” Homewood head coach Ben Berguson said.
Running back Evan Ausmer finished with 13 carries for 67 yards and a touchdown for Homewood (3-0, 1-0 in region).
“We went up there with the intent of running the ball between the tackles, but we ended up Air Raid-ing them,” Berguson said.
The Patriots finished with 471 yards of offense and 28 second-half points, something Berguson said last week that he wanted to see more of moving forward. Mortimer Jordan finished with 292 total yards and three lost fumbles.
Berguson said the Patriots’ defense played really well during the game as well.
Homewood plays host to Woodlawn next week in another game.
“It’s nice to be 3-0,” Berguson said. “We’re focusing on ourselves.”
