Football Recap: Wells Piles Up the Points Against Owyhee
Football Recap: Wells Leopards vs. Owyhee Braves
By Team Reports
Sep 18, 2026, 6:04 pm
Homecoming Game
Wells faced Owyhee in a battle between two of the state's top teams on Friday. The Leopards simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat the Braves 38-6. The win was just business as usual for the Leopards, who after four games remain undefeated this season.
Wells' victory bumped their record up to 4-0. As for Owyhee, they are on a five-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-3.
We've got plenty of inter-league action coming up soon. Wells will face off against their in-conference opponent Eureka at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
