🏈 Mustangs Dominate York 78-7 in Season Opener 🏈

Western scored in every quarter, posting 17 points in the first quarter, 21 in both the second and third quarters, and 19 in the fourth quarter.  Western threw for 510 yards and four touchdowns and rushed for 317 yards and six touchdowns, while the defence added three interceptions and three sacks.

"From January 5, we told the group that we're going to be the hardest-working team in the country, super proud of our coaching staff, our players. It didn't look like week one kind of rust, right? It looked like a team that was well-oiled, super proud of the execution," said Head Coach Michael Faulds.
