A big turnover aided first half scoring burst proved to be just enough to earn Barker/Roy-Hart a 29-22 win over Medina in a C North Division football game at Vets Park this evening.

Barker/Roy-Hart built up a 29-0 lead as turnovers set up each of the Bulls four touchdowns.

Capitalizing, the Bulls quickly upped the lead to 15-0 on a 7 yard touchdown run by Vince Fazzio and a two-point conversion run by Joey Reiter.

A pass interception by Carter DerSarkissian then set up a 5 yard touchdown run by Reiter. McCaa again added the PAT kick upping the Bulls lead to 22-0.
