The Luverne football team traveled to Jordan losing 49-7 to the Hubmen Friday, Sept. 9.
“Jordan is a very good team that moved down from 4A to 3A this year,” head coach Todd Oye said.
“With that being said, we need to play well against the big schools in our class to be competitive, and we did not do that.”

In the second quarter the Hubmen scored three times, including a pick six that went 38 yards against the Cardinals’ offense.
Luverne found itself down 35-0 at the half.
Jordan scored again in the third quarter to further bury the Cardinals in a 42-0 hole.
Luverne was able to muster a drive in the fourth quarter when junior Carter Sehr found the end zone on a 9-yard run.
Late in the fourth Jordan added one more touchdown, beating Luverne 49-7 in the game.
Senior Elliot Domagala led Luverne with 56 rushing yards and senior Patrick Kroski caught two passes for 56 yards.
Senior quarterback Conner Connell was five of 15 for 69 yards, and sophomore Joshua Hansen was two for four for 33 total yards.
