Luke Marchionni made the first of his two extra-point kicks to give Southeastern a 7-0 lead.<\/p>\n<p>Avon tied the game with a 10-yard touchdown pass with a minute left in the first half. The Royals responded right away: Terry Walker III sent a 76-yard TD pass to Kendrick Pennybaker. Marchionni\u2019s kick put HSE up 14-7 at the break.<\/p>\n<p>The Orioles tied the game again early in the fourth quarter on a two-yard touchdown run. Avon stopped the Royals\u2019 next drive, but Southeastern got the ball back after Drake Satterfield recovered a fumble on the punt return. The Royals made their way down to the Orioles\u2019 10-yard line, and Marchionni made a 27-yard field goal for what would be the game-winning score.<\/p>\n<p>Walker finished the game 9-of-16, totaling 114 yards, with Pennybaker making three of those catches for 81 yards.<\/p>\n<p>Southeastern is 3-0 and travels to Fishers this Friday for the Mudsock game.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-155219\" src=\"https:\/\/readthereporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/football-hse-box-score-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"493\" height=\"519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/readthereporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/football-hse-box-score-1.jpg 493w, https:\/\/readthereporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/football-hse-box-score-1-285x300.jpg 285w, https:\/\/readthereporter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/football-hse-box-score-1-142x150.jpg 142w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 493px) 100vw, 493px\"\/><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n<p><script>\n\t\t\t\t(function(d, s, id){\n\t\t\t\t\tvar js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];\n\t\t\t\t\tif (d.getElementById(id)) return;\n\t\t\t\t\tjs = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;\n\t\t\t\t\tjs.src = \"\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&version=v2.6\";\n\t\t\t\t\tfjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);\n\t\t\t\t}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));\n\t\t\t<\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source readthereporter.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hamilton Southeastern\u2019s Kendrick Pennybaker caught a touchdown pass late in the second quarter for the Royals during their game with Avon Friday, Sept. 5.
