The Comets never trailed, taking a 16-0 lead midway through the second quarter and keeping the Knights at bay to not only hand ALAH its first loss of the season, but end a three-game losing streak.
Kyler Johnson rushed for 234 yards on 30 carries and three touchdowns, while Riglee Hart completed 9 of 11 passes for 59 yards and added 57 rushing yards on eight carries in his first start of the season at quarterback in place of injured Alex Wallace. Wallace is out with a concussion.
"I was thrilled by the preparation and the way they accepted the challenge," Oakwood coach Cameron Lee said. "We ran our offense efficiently. We made some adjustments to that, but we played good defense. It was a really good win and almost healing in a way."
Oakwood will head to John Boma Field in Gilman this week, with the host Raiders (1-6, 1-5) going through a tough season. Iroquois West has lost five straight games after a 33-7 win at Hoopeston Area/Armstrong-Potomac in Week 2.
"The challenge for us is to continue build off where we're at and not worry so much about our opponent because we've done a little too much worrying about our opponents this season," Lee said. "I'm not trying to have them worry about Iroquois West, Week 9 or the playoffs. We are focusing on playing our best because I don't feel we've played anywhere near our best through four quarters of any game."
