Silverton Foxes Football 57-0 South Albany

Silverton's football team wasted no time making a statement in Mid-Willamette Conference (5A) play, rolling to a dominant 57-0 shutout at South Albany on Friday night. The Foxes, based in Silverton, Oregon, could not have scripted a better start to league competition, controlling every phase of the game from the opening whistle. The lopsided margin speaks to a defense that completely smothered South Albany's offense while the Silverton attack operated efficiently throughout. The shutout victory moves the Foxes to 3-1 on the season and 1-0 in conference play, a strong position as the Mid-Willamette schedule heats up. After dropping one of their first three games, Silverton has now responded with a statement performance on the road, which can do wonders for a team's confidence heading into the heart of league play. The Foxes return home next week looking to build on this momentum and keep pace in what figures to be a competitive Mid-Willamette race.
