Varsity Football loses to St. Xavier

by Jarod Lipson

Brownsburg lost to nationally ranked St. Xavier on Aug. 30.

The game was closer than the 38-17 lead would suggest. Brownsburg was leading after the first quarter and at halftime.

Luke Lacey's touchdown reception and Clay Chase's field goal put the Bulldogs ahead 10-7 after one quarter.

Another Lacey touchdown catch in the second quarter - this one an 80-yard reception - gave Brownsburg a 17-16 halftime lead.

From there it was all downhill, and St. Xavier scored 22 unanswered points in the second half.

Brownsburg is now 1-1 and returns home to face Franklin Central on Friday.
