GAME SUMMARY

While the Oregon School Activities Association "Mercy Rule" was averted, in what was eventually deemed "The Turnover Bowl" (10 turnovers between the 2 teams), Glencoe High School won the rivalry in convincing fashion with the final score of 50-7. Glencoe's running back, Michael Schraeder, and eventual Great American Rivalry Series MVP had the game's first rushing touchdown, and Glencoe never looked back after taking the lead with 6:26 left in the first quarter.
