It was unfamiliar territory. For the first time this season, the Helias Crusaders were behind in a game as the Battle Spartans took a 16-10 lead into halftime Friday night at Ray Hentges Stadium. The deficit didn’t last long. Helias scored three touchdowns in the first seven minutes of the third quarter on its way to a 58-16 victory against Battle in Central Missouri Activities Conference play.

Up by a touchdown at halftime Friday night against the Hannibal Pirates, the Helias Crusaders dominated the third quarter on their way to a season-opening 31-21 victory. “Everybody played so well for us tonight,” Helias coach Chris Hentges said. “We got a lot of great efforts from a lot of kids.”
