Steamboat football falls to Fort Lupton, evens season record
The Steamboat Springs football team traveled to Fort Lupton for its final away game of the season on Friday, Oct. 21.
A high scoring opening quarter lead to a 45-20 Fort Lupton lead at halftime. Despite a couple scores in the third quarter making it a manageable game, Steamboat was unable to complete the comeback, losing 52-35.
The Sailors defense sharpened up in a big way for quarters two, three and four, but it was too late. Steamboat’s record now evens to 4-4 with just one game remaining on the season.
The Sailors welcome Berthoud to Steamboat for the season finale on Saturday, Oct. 29. A win would grant them a second consecutive winning record.
Fort Lupton 52, Steamboat Springs 35
SS 20 0 15 0 – 35
FL 45 0 0 7 – 52
