WAUNAKEE — Andrew Weber has handled the kicking duties for the Waunakee prep football team for the past two seasons, so it's not like the senior is parched in the points department.

That doesn't mean his first varsity touchdown Friday night — a momentum-changing, 46-yard second-quarter interception return — didn't quench a lingering thirst.

"That was one of my goals this year, to score a touchdown," Weber said after the Warriors crushed Milton 41-0 in a non-conference game.

While Weber's interception provided a 14-0 lead in the second quarter, superior line play on both sides of the football and a dynamite blitz package helped Waunakee extend its home winning streak to an amazing 60 games.

The Warriors (2-0) held the Red Hawks (1-1) to 58 yards rushing — 52 came on quarterback scrambles during garbage time late in the fourth quarter — and tallied six sacks.

Waunakee coach Pat Rice put in a 3-3-5 package instead of his standard 4-4 front to confuse high-powered Milton, which put up 387 yards and 46 points in a victory over defending WIAA Division 2 state runner-up DeForest last week.

"It just really took them out of their comfort zone," Rice said. "I just don't think (Milton quarterback Zach Fry) ever had a chance to get comfortable. Again, I knew they weren't game-planning for what we came out in. And you've got to give these kids credit to turn around a game plan in a week and execute it."

Waunakee senior Seppi Reda's 20-yard punt return set up Waunakee's first scoring drive, a five-play, 27-yard march capped by senior fullback Jordan Bezemek's 3-yard plunge in the first quarter.

The Red Hawks didn't seem shaken by the early 7-0 deficit and appeared poised to tie the score in the second quarter, but a would-be 62-yard touchdown catch-and-run was wiped out by a holding penalty.

After a pair of first downs on the same drive, Weber stepped in front of speedy tailback Hank McIvor — who exited in the second quarter with an injured ankle — and returned the interception 46 yards for a score.

The Red Hawks had a bevy of linemen ready to block in front of the speedy McIvor, but Weber hid behind them and jumped the route the moment Fry threw the pass.

"When I threw the ball, I still didn't see him," said Fry, who under constant pressure threw three interceptions. "He just came out of nowhere, busted through the three blockers and took the ball. It was a great play."

Down 14-0, Milton drove into scoring position. But back-to-back penalties led to a fourth-and-14 on which Ethan Bachinski couldn't corral a high pass in the end zone. An ensuing 13-play, 77-yard touchdown drive by Waunakee sealed the deal.

"I still believe we're a good football team," Milton coach Jeff Bachinski said. "We just made too many mistakes. We gave the ball up too much. We had our opportunities and we let it slip away early."
