Helix Pulls Away for 28–7 Victory Over Imperial

The Helix Highlanders defeated the Imperial Tigers 28–7 Friday night, using a balanced offensive attack and a strong defensive performance to improve to 1–1 on the season.

Helix received the opening kickoff and marched the length of the field, controlling the ball for the entire first quarter. The drive continued into the second quarter, but Imperial’s defense came up with a strong goal-line stand. The Highlanders attempted a field goal, but the kick was missed, keeping the game scoreless.

Helix eventually broke through in the second quarter when quarterback Caden Thompson connected with Jacob Andrew-Johnson for the game’s first touchdown. Stephon Fuentes added a rushing touchdown to give the Highlanders a 14–0 halftime lead.

Thompson struck again in the third quarter, finding Jeremy Stevens on a short pass that turned into a 63-yard touchdown and extended the lead to 21–0.

Donte Wright scored on the ground in the fourth quarter to make it 28–0. Imperial continued battling as the Santonio Urena-led offense marched down the field, with Urena connecting with Anthony Hellum on a touchdown pass to make the final score 28–7.

Imperial lineman Santiago Tapia also recorded the first reception of his high school career after catching a pass that was tipped at the line of scrimmage.
