Independence High School picked up a Region 7-6A win over Centennial this weekend, defeating the Cougars by a score of 17-14.
The Eagles scored first on a 34-yard touchdown throw from Cody Pagach to Hudson Cobb. Centennial answered with a touchdown run to end the first quarter. Following a field goal by Independence, CHS regained the lead when Myles Johnson returned a blocked punt for a touchdown.
After a lengthy lightning delay forced the game to be postponed until Saturday, IHS running back Tre Hartwell scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 77-yard run in the fourth quarter. High School Football Scoreboard
