St. Francis football sputters against Marian Central

GLEN ELLYN – St. Francis offered Marian Central one of its toughest tests of the season Friday.

But when the pressure mounted, the Spartans’ offense sputtered. St. Francis failed to score a touchdown until the final minute of a 28-8 loss to Marian Central in a Suburban Christian Conference Blue Division contest.

“We just weren’t able to score,” St. Francis coach Greg Purnell said. “That was the whole ball game. If we punch it in a couple of times, it’s a whole different game.”
