Broncos beat Medical Lake

MEDICAL LAKE – The Lind-Ritzville/Sprague Broncos cruised to an easy win while putting on an offensive display at Medical Lake, Friday night, Oct. 8.

The Class 2B, No. 1-ranked Broncos won, 62-34, in a non-league contest over the Class 1A Medical Lake Cardinals.

"We had a really nice game, offensively," Coach and Athletic Director Greg Whitmore said of the win.

He also credited Medical Lake's offensive attack in scoring 34 points.

"Medical Lake's size on the offensive line gave us problems and we had a hard time stopping their rushing attack," he said.

Chase Galbreath completed 13-of-21 passes for 248 yards and 4 touchdowns in the win. Three of the touchdown passes went to Hunter Dinkins, who had 7 catches for 180 yards.

"Chase was really good, again," Whitmore said, adding: "Hunter had a great game; Brock Kinch and Brody Boness rushed well."

A fourth touchdown pass went to J.T Kelly.

Brock Kinch added 2 rushing touchdowns and Brody Boness scored another touchdown on a 58-yard run.

Kinch and Boness carried the ball a combined 16 times for 175 yards and three touchdowns.

Whitmore said the Broncos were able to substitute younger players in for same game time in the win over Medical Lake.

"Of course, we are already starting three freshman and five sophomores, so we are young to begin with," he said.

The undefeated Broncos will host Reardan (2-4) for Homecoming this Friday, Oct. 15.

"Reardan is always very tough for us," Whitmore said. "They are getting some kids back, so I suspect they will play their best game against us.

"The target on our backs gets bigger and bigger, so we have to be mentally focused on Friday," he said. "That sometimes is difficult during Homecoming week."

Kickoff is set for 7 p.m.
