Antwerp opened the 2021 high school football season in style with a 35-point first quarter and the Archers never looked back in cruising to a 49-8 win over Montpelier Friday night at Archer Field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carson Altimus completed 10 of 14 passes for 188 yards and threw a trio of touchdown passes to lead the Antwerp offense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reid Lichty ran for 45 yards on six carries, including touchdown runs of 11 and eight yards as well. Altimus added 21 yards on four tries and Austin Wade rumbled for 20 yards on five attempts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hunter Sproles hauled in six catches for 136 yards and a pair of scores, the first a ten-yard strike before a 22-yard toss for points. Landon Brewer caught two passes for 25 yards, one of which was a 15-yard touchdown toss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Landon Brigle provided the lone Locomotive touchdown, a two-yard fourth-quarter plunge to break up the shutout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After opening the 35-0 lead at the end of one period, the Archers stretched the advantage to 49-0 at the intermission before the late Montpelier score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sproles had a three-yard touchdown run that started the game\u2019s scoring and Kaden Recker added a 41-yard interception return for a score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Antwerp hits the road the next two weeks, traveling to Edon on Friday before visiting Hilltop on September 3. The Bombers won 49-22 at Edgerton in last week\u2019s season opener while the Cadets fell to Jackson-Milton 29-12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
