Roberts helps Pillager past Sebeka

PILLAGER -- Senior Lee Roberts scored three touchdowns to help the Pillager Huskies to a 47-6 Prairie Conference North victory over the Sebeka Trojans Friday.

Pillager coach Pete Bothun gave all the credit to his staff and players for putting the Huskies one win away from the No. 1 seed in the section, which starts Oct. 23.

The scoring began when Roberts connected with Adam Brown on a 45-yard pass play that pretty much proved to be all the Huskies needed to wrap up a homecoming victory.
