LA PORTE CITY (KWWL) -

Jay Scheel and Dylan Bear connected on three touchdown passes in the first half to help Union cruise to a 37-13 home win against Aplington-Parkersburg Friday night.

On Union's first drive of the game, Scheel found Bear in the end zone for a 7-yard score.

After a field goal to make it 10-0, A-P QB Cody Ryan scored on a short TD run around the right side to make it 10-7.

However, Scheel would then find Bear in the back of the end zone for a 23-yard TD to make it 17-7.

After a blocked punt was returned for a TD by Nathan Harting put the Knights up 24-7, the Knights would close out the half with less than a minute remaining on a Scheel to Bear connection again.

That would make it 31-7 at the half.

Both teams would score a TD in the 2nd half to make the final score 37-13.
