Toledo corrals Mules; 3rd ranked Kalama ahead

Not much went right for the Wahkiakum Mules in their 37-0 game last Friday at Toledo.

Toledo dominated the line of scrimmage, piling up 307 yards rushing to the Mules' 22.

Injury problems hurt the Mules. They had previously lost two of the four start-of-the-season starting backs to injuries, and against Toledo, starting fullback Braxton Johns went out with a knee injury.

Quarterback Gabe Moon, who moved from center to quarterback on October 11, was the Mules' leading runner with 14 yards gained. Leading defenders were Jerimyah Johnson with six tackles and seven assists; Jake Leitz 7/5, Zayne Meneou 4/6; Eli Moon 3/4, Damion Curl 2/5, and Chase Heagy 1/5.

It doesn't get much easier: The third ranked Kalama Chinooks come to Cathlamet this Friday for a 7 p.m. game.

The Mules will close out the regular season on Nov. 1, hosting the Winlock Cardinals. The game was originally set for Oct. 31, but it has been moved back one day, Mule Coach Eric Hansen said Monday.
