Unbeaten King’s Way Christian scored 49 successive points in a 49-13 trouncing of Elma during non-league football action Friday, Sept. 23, at Vancouver.

The Eagles (0-4) actually scored first, when Ira Hartford broke an 80-yard touchdown run with the game only 13 seconds old. Alejandro Hernandez’s conversion gave Elma a 7-0 lead.

King’s Way, however, answered with three TDs in the next 8 1/2 minutes, then made it 27-7 when Luke Hoffman went the distance on a 41-yard run on the final play of the quarter.

It was 36-7 at the half and 49-7 at the three-quarter mark.

Hartford’s 9-yard TD run at the 9:05 mark of the fourth quarter closed out the scoring.

As has been their habit this season, the Eagles performed better in the second half, even against King’s Way starters.

“We’ve just got to execute better, we’ve got to be more disciplined,” Elma coach Ron Clark said. “We moved a lot better and ran the ball decently in the second half. They were an extremely athletic team.”

Hartford rushed for 197 yards on 27 carries. He was cited by Clark for a fine performance, as was running mate Tatium Brumfield and receiver Levi Spalding. The latter was making his season debut after recovering from a broken hand.

The Eagles return home Friday to face Rochester.
