The Nelson Hawks got off to quick starts in each half Friday, and it was just enough to propel them past Mountainside 42-35 in a fast-paced non-conference tilt at Nelson High School.

Nelson (3-1) led 14-0 early in the game, then broke a 21-21 halftime tie with two quick touchdowns in the third quarter.
