Johnny McMahan Woodward News

Woodward, Okla. — MUTUAL – Sharon-Mutual signalled its intention to be a factor in the 2010 high school football season Friday night.

The Class C Trojans used a big-play running game to upend Class B Seiling, a team ranked in the top 10 of some polls, 34-16. The Trojans performance gave Chris Syms a victory in his debut as head coach.

Timmy Lieswald scored 2 touchdowns and Cody Cottom and Braden Neill 1 each for the Trojans. Neill’s score came on a pass from Weston Free, who also had a 28-yard touchdown run late in the game.

Seiling scored first as Tyler Flowers capped a 74-yard opening drive with a 4-yard run. The extra point made it 8-0.

Sharon-Mutual answered early in the second period on a 3-yard run by Lieswald. The extra point failed. After getting a stop on defense, the Trojans scored again. Free’s 49-yard run set up an 9-yard touchdown by Cottom. Free got the extra point run for a 14-8 lead.

Lieswald had a 3-yard touchdown in the third period to make it 20-8.

Seiling countered with a score and extra point to get within 20-16, but the Trojans put the game away with a pair of 4th quarter touchdowns.

Sharon-Mutual goes to Timberlake next week.
