Tackled from behind, a Baron goes down. But he got up again, and again, and
again.
The Barons of Manheim
Central handed Donegal its
first loss of the fall last
Friday, overwhelming the
Indians 39-14.
The usually formidable
Indian defense crumbled
Manheim receiver is a jump ahead of Donegal defensive
into confusion in the face of
Manheim’s surprise run-
and-shoot offense. All week
long, the Indians had been
practicing defensive man-

last-half performance of the
Indian offense, which
turned in the season’s best
statistics with 198 yards
rushing and 73 yards

passes, with one touchdown
pass (and one interception).
He is now eight for 19 for
the season, with 202 yards.
Steve Bowman racked up
85 yards on only six carries,
