For the first time in three years, Staley won their home opener. The victory also gave Head Coach Fred Bouchard his 200th career win. The Falcons gained the ultimate momentum in the second quarter when Blue Spring fumbled deep in Staley territory. Several plays later when the Falcons were facing 3rd-and-1 from their 10 yard line, senior running back Faizol Bouchard ran through the Blue Springs defense for a 90-yard touchdown.

Staley easily controlled the rest of the game and cruised to victory. Blue Springs hosts Fort Osage next week while Staley travels to Raymore-Peculiar.
