BLUFFTON - The homestanding Bluffton football team stuck to the ground and ran past last-place Delphos Jefferson 42-14 in a Northwest Conference contest Friday night.

The Pirates dominated their last home game of 2019 by running the ball - they did not throw a single pass en route to rolling up 377 rushing yards.

Delphos scored the first touchdown, but then Bluffton reeled off 35 unanswered points to pull away from a close game at halftime and win handily.
