Saints’ Schulte hits 100
Welcome to the Century Club, Duane Schulte.
Class 4A third-ranked Cedar Rapids Xavier repeatedly took advantage of a short field in the first half and clobbered 42nd Street rival Cedar Rapids Kennedy, 35-7, in a Mississippi Valley Conference battle last night at Saints Field.
The victory was the 100th of Schulte's career, now in his 17th season.
“I've been fortunate enough to have great assistant coaches and outstanding players,” Schulte said. “And I'm fortunate to have a wife like mine (Sherry) who more or less raised our four kids.”
Schulte is 100-62 overall, including 76-48 at Xavier. This one came surprisingly easy.
The Saints (1-0) had the lead barely two minutes into the game, extended it to 14-0 soon after, and built a 28-0 halftime advantage.
Four players scored the four first-half touchdowns.
