Mississinewa Routs Squires, 48-7 NORTH MANCHESTER – Visiting Mississinewa could almost do no wrong Friday night, including kicking an extra point that hit the crossbar and went over, as the Indians defeated Manchester 48-7 in a non-conference football game. Indian quarterback Cade McCoin threw touchdown passes of 28, 25 and 24 yards and by 2:12 of the second quarter Mississinewa led 20-0. The last four of their touchdowns were runs of 11, 5, 10 and 20 yards.. The Indians had one last drive in the fourth quarter that started from their own 43. Freshman Cade Campbell, in the game for the first time, carried the ball four times in a row for a total of 59 yards, including a 35-yard run to the Manchester 5-yard line; the game's longest play from scrimmage. After Campbell's four-yard carry to the Manchester one, Mississenewa's QB took a knee and ran out the clock. Manchester scored its only touchdown with 3:10 left in the fourth quarter on a five-yard run by quarterback Hayes Sturtsman. Sturtsman completed 14 passes for 92 yards with one interception. Devon Rooney had four receptions for 36 yards, and Parker Yard caught three passes for 25 yards. Manchester plays host to Bluffton Friday.
