QB hurt in Moniteau loss
It was a very costly trip for the Moniteau football team.
The Warriors fell behind 27-7 on the road at St. Marys on the way to a 46-15 loss Friday night.
The biggest loss, though, might have been quarterback Kyle Armagost, who suffered an apparent concussion in the third quarter.
Armagost had thrown for 146 yards and rushed for another 90 before his night ended. He also threw two interceptions.
"Too many mistakes too early," said Moniteau coach Jeff Campbell. "Too many missed tackles cost us."
The Warriors (2-3, 0-3 in the KSAC-Large) had trouble keeping St. Marys' Justin Quiggle in check.
Quiggle hauled in three touchdown passes from quarterback Brad Yetzer in the first half and also rushed for two TDs.
Quiggle finished with four receptions for 186 yards and seven rushes for 105 yards.
Moniteau committed five turnovers.
Armagost kept the Warriors in the game early after falling behind 13-0. He scored on a 15-yard run to close the gap to 13-7.
But Quiggle scored on a 69-yard reception and a 63- yard run to put St. Marys (3-2, 1-2) ahead 27-7 at the half.
The Dutchmen poured it on in the third quarter, leading 46-7 heading into the fourth.
Moniteau closed the scoring with a 4-yard run by Tanner Blair.
"We moved the ball," Campbell said. "Then we would fumble or shoot ourselves in the foot. It was ugly."
Armagost was taken to a hospital after the game for further evaluation.
