Hellgate Football Is Back

The return of Hellgate Knights football would happen Thursday night as the Knights would host the Bozeman Hawks at Missoula County Public School Stadium at Big Sky high school.

Things would get out to a bumpy start as the game would be interrupted in the opening drive with a 30 minute lighting delay, halting the Knight’s drive. When play would resume Hellgate would regain their momentum and score to take the lead on the opening drive. Bozeman would flex their offensive muscle and put 14 points on the board in under 60 seconds to take 14-7 lead.

The Hawks would tighten down their defense, holding the Knights scoreless for the remaining 45 minutes while building a healthy lead.The Knights would fall to the Hawks 40-7 in their return to Class AA football.
