The Horsemen hosted the Charlo Vikings last Friday in Plains, falling 54-20.
The Vikings were the first to score Friday night nearly halfway into the first quarter. Plains responded with under a minute left as Mason Elliott returned a kickoff 65 yards to tie the game at 6 each. The Vikings then returned a Plains kickoff for a touchdown to end the first quarter up 13-6.

The Plains defense held Charlo to two touchdowns in the second quarter. In the third, Horseman Nicholas Hill scored from 25 yards out, followed by a successful two-point conversion by Darren Standeford. As the third quarter ended, the Horsemen trailed 41-14.
Charlo again went on a scoring run in the fourth quarter, with a touchdown a minute into the final quarter. Plains blocked the extra point attempt. With just under six minutes left in the game, Standeford caught a 25-yard pass for another Plains score. The two-point conversion attempt was unsuccessful and the game ended with a Charlo victory.
Plains was set to host Darby Wednesday as they celebrated senior night. Results of that game will be available in next week's Ledger.
