BROWNING — Chris Park scored three touchdowns in the first half and Whitefish cruised to a 47-8 nonconference Class A football victory over Browning on Friday night.

Park scored in nearly every way, running in the first score from 15 yards out and hauling in a 10-yard pass from Luke May. At the end of the first half he even scored on defense, batting down a pass from the Browning 2-yard line and pulling it down in the end zone for his third score of the night.

May had a pair of touchdown passes, one each to Park and Jed Nagler and a three-yard running score. Brian FauntLeRoy capped the scoring with a one-yard run.

The Whitefish defense held Browning to one first down in the first half, dominating the contest. The Indians scored in the closing minutes against the Bulldogs backups, Morgan Boggs adding a touchdown and Ryan Loring a conversion run to put Browning on the board.
