Hanszen uses staunch defense to shut out Wiess 18-0
They may share the South Servery, but in Saturday’s Powderpuff Game of the Week it was Hanszen that served up Wiess, winning 18-0.
Hanszen (4-2) looked sharp in its first drive, marching 65 yards in 10 plays and jumping to a 6-0 lead in the first quarter. The push picked up with Hanszen facing a third and 10 from their own 48 when junior quarterback Kate Schaeffler found sophomore receiver Katherine Pouns in the middle of the field for a 23-yard reception.
Hanszen converted on another third down on Wiess’s 20-yard line courtesy of a Schaeffler seven-yard scramble. The quarterback then found Pouns again on a 13-yard touchdown reception that, though tipped by a Wiess defensive back, found its way into the sophomore wideout’s hands.
“We established ourselves again on the first possession on offense,” Hanszen head coach Chris Revell said. “It was a really big key for us to put one in on that first drive and get momentum.”
Hanszen then forced Wiess to a quick three-and-out, stuffing two inside runs before pressuring Wiess freshman quarterback Laura Barg-Walkow to throw an incomplete pass.
The second drive of the game for Hanszen was a mirror image of their first
