The Renton Indians football team on Sept. 12 opened their home schedule by kicking off to the Cedar Park Christian Eagles and the fans in the stands yelled out a simple order: “Get that ball back!”

On the next play, the Indian defense responded, picking off the CPC quarterback and giving the ball back to the offense, who took it down the field and punched it in for a touchdown.

Then, the Indian defense stepped up again, causing a fumble to get the ball back.

Then, before the end of the first quarter the defense made a four-down goal-line stand on the one-foot line to keep the Eagles out of the endzone yet again.

The only chink in the Indians armor came at the end of the first half, when following the kickoff of another Renton touchdown, the Eagles gathered a pooch kick and ran it in for a touchdown and a 23-6 halftime score.

In the third quarter, Renton kept it rolling, tacking on another 10 points for a 33-6 lead.

In the fourth, Renton scored again, but CPC was also able to put one through, for a final score of 40-13.

Renton is now 2-0 and tied with Kennedy Catholic atop the Seamount League. The Indians travel to Kennedy on Saturday for a 1 p.m. match-up with the Lancers.
