BEAVERTON, Ore. – Union coach Cale Piland stressed all week as his team prepped to face nationally-ranked Jesuit that the Titans had to play error-free football to have a chance at the upset.
One play into Friday’s game at Jesuit’s Cronin Field, that plan went up in smoke.
AJ Glass forced a fumble on Union’s opening play, then the Crusaders junior dragged two defenders into the end zone on the very next play — the first of his five touchdowns as Jesuit went on to a 48-12 victory.
Union (1-1) had three first-half turnovers and watched Jesuit (2-0) sprint out to a 41-6 halftime lead en route to the 400th victory in the school’s 54-year history.
