WINFIELD, W.Va. — Class AA No. 12 Winfield picked up a critical win on Friday night, beating No. 8 Sissonville 46-14.
Senior quarterback Andrew Huff totaled 221 total offensive yards and three touchdowns in the win for Winfield (5-2). Huff completed 5 of 13 passes for 166 yards and two scores, while rushing for 55 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries.
The Generals defensively limited Sissonville to 204 total yards on the night and just those two touchdowns.
“We played great defense,” said Winfield coach Craig Snyder. “Only giving up 14 points is excellent. It’s great to score a lot of points, but we think the key to having a good season is playing really good defense. Our defense has been improving.”
Sissonville (5-2) was led by quarterback Will Hackney who was 14 of 31 passing for 129 yards and two touchdowns in the loss.
“Our plan was to not let (Hackney) sit back there and let them pick us apart because he’s a good quarterback,” Snyder said. “I think we did a good job of getting after him.”
