Colton Vikings Football 12-42 Grant Union

Grant Union handed Colton a lopsided defeat Friday night, winning 42-12 in a non-league football game played in Colton, Oregon. The Wolverines struggled to find consistent offense against a Grant Union squad that pulled away decisively, limiting Colton to two touchdowns on the evening while piling up 42 points of their own. The 30-point margin made for a difficult night at home, though Colton had shown real promise earlier in the season with a 4-2 record heading into the contest. The loss drops the Wolverines to 4-3 overall on the year. Because this was a non-league game, Friday's result has no direct bearing on Colton's conference standing, where the Wolverines currently sit at 2-2. With the regular season winding down, Colton will need to regroup quickly and refocus on league play. How the Wolverines respond in the coming weeks will go a long way toward determining whether they can finish their conference schedule on a strong note.
