Scappoose Indians Football 7-35 Cascade Christian

Cascade Christian handed Scappoose a 35-7 defeat on Friday, September 4, in a non-league football game played at Cascade Christian's home field. The result drops Scappoose, based in Scappoose, Oregon and competing in the Northwest Oregon Conference (5A), to 1-1 on the season. The Indians came in riding momentum from a season-opening win, but the road environment proved challenging as Cascade Christian controlled the game throughout. Scappoose's lone score kept the game from being a shutout, but the 28-point margin was a tough result to absorb this early in the year. Non-league matchups like this one serve a purpose, testing a team against unfamiliar competition and revealing areas that need work before conference play begins. The coaching staff will have plenty of film to study and lessons to build on. Scappoose returns to action next week looking to get back on track and carry that 1-1 record in a positive direction as Northwest Oregon Conference play approaches.
