The Kennedy Catholic football Lancers blanked the Auburn Trojans 48-0 on Saturday, Oct. 3 at home, rolling to their fourth straight victory.
The shutout was Kennedy Catholic’s second of the season and its most lopsided win. The Lancers (4-1) have outscored opponents 167-31 through five games.
The Lancers did all of its damage in the first three quarters, jumping out to a 20-0 lead after the first, stretching it to 41-0 by halftime with a 21-point second quarter, and adding one more touchdown in the third before a scoreless fourth closed out the dominant 48-0 final.
After a season-opening 14-10 loss to Bellevue, Kennedy Catholic has won four in a row.

Averaging 33.4 Points Per Game
This season the Lancers are averaging 33.4 points per game (167 points through 5 games). Last year’s team averaged 39.9 per game (439 points over 11 games, finishing 8-3), so this year’s offense is scoring about 6.5 fewer points per game — but the defense has more than made up for it, allowing just 6.2 per game this season versus 17.9 last year.
The Lancers travel to Mount Rainier next, on Friday, Oct. 9 at 7 p.m.
