MISHAWAKA — Penn bent. It didn't break. Three second half turnovers forced by the Kingsmen defense — including a pick-six by Penn senior Vincent Horner with seven minutes left in the game — sealed a 28-7 victory for Penn of Mishawaka in the first Backyard Brawl game in four years. Horner's second interception of the game came with the Cavemen facing a 4th-and-8 from the Penn 47-yard line. Horner read the pass from Mishawaka quarterback Brady Fisher perfectly, stepping in front of the pass and running it back 64 yards virtually untouched.
