KANSAS CITY - Jefferson City couldn't have asked for a worse start to its game Friday night against Rockhurst.

Rockhurst kicker Griffin Bins made sure the bad start turned into a Jefferson City loss.

Rockhurst turned Jefferson City's first two possessions into 10 points and Bins added three field goals to lead the Hawklets to a 16-6 victory Friday night in Kansas City.

"We spotted them 10 points right off the bat and gave them six the rest of the game," Jefferson City head coach Ted LePage said.

Jefferson City quarterback Thomas LePage threw an interception on the third play of the game. Bins made it 3-0 with a 45-yard field goal.

With the Jays driving on their next possession, LePage was picked off again. This time Mitch Koeppen returned it 60 yards for a touchdown to make it 10-0 with 5:30 left in the first quarter.
