A NASTY NIGHT BUT HIGH
SCHOOL CAN GET NASTY IN
HAMPTON ROADS, ESPECIALLY
WHEN WE GET WITHIN TWO
WEEKS FROM THE PLAYOFFS.
I'M BRUCE RADER WELCOME

FINAL TWO WEEKS OF THE
REGULAR SEASON IF YOU CAN
BELIEVE THAT.
COX HIGH SCHOOL, ONE OF
THE TOP TEAMS IN THE
AREA, LED BY VIRGINIA
TECH COMMITT
TAYVION ROBINSON--BUT
ROBINSON HURT EARLY IN

HOW BIG A LOSS WAS THAT
FOR COX.
COX LEADING SIXTEEN TO
TEN, BACK UP QUARTERBACK
KENDALL SPRIGGINS TAKING
OVER
FOR TAYVION TO LENO
LESTER FOR THE SCORE.
COX GOES FOR TWO, IT
DOSEN'T WORK BUT COX

BUT CAN SALEM TAKE
ADVANTAGE, OH YEA, KAYLON

YARDS FOR THE TOUCHDOWN
TO MAKE IT A ONE SCORE
GAME.
4TH QUARTER, SALEM WITH
THE DIRECT SNAP TO KAYLON
BLACK, WHO COUGHS IT UP!
BODIES FLY ON TOP OF THE
BALL AND AT THE BOTTOM OF
THE PILE IT'S THE FALCONS
WHO
RECOVER!
BUT HERE'S WHERE COX
MISSED ROBINSON THE MOST.
BACK TO BACK SNAPS THE
BALL GETS AWAY SO COX
PUNTS IT RIGHT BACK TO
SALEM.
GIVING KAYLON BLACK THE
CHANCE TO BE THE HERO,
AND HE COMES THROUGH WITH
A 16
YARD RUN RIGHT INTO YOUR
LIVING ROOM, TWO KEY
TOUCHDOWNS FOR KAYLON
BLACK AND
SALEM UPSETS COX 24 TO

LANDSTOWN BEATS TALLWOOD

KELLAM TRYING TO HANG ON
TO THE 8 SEED IN CLASS 6
REGION A.
THE KNIGHTS HOSTING
BAYSIDE, WHICH SHOULD BE
PLAYOFF BOUND AFTER LAST
WEEK'S WIN
OVER SALEM.
BUT THE MARLINS PUT THEM
TO THE TEST EARLY.
KHAMRAN LABORN GETS THE
HANDOFF AND SPINS OFF THE
DEFENDER ON HIS WAY TO
THE HOUSE
TO GIVE BAYSIDE THE EARLY
LEAD
THE RAIN WOULD MAKE
THINGS INTERESTING AS
BAYSIDE ONCE AGAIN WITH
THE BALL AND
MOVING DOWN FIELD.
THIS TIME IT'S NAQUEZ
SAUNDERS WITH THE CARRY
BUT IT POPS OUT AND
KELLAM TAKES
OVER.
BUT THE KNIGHTS COULDN'T
CAPITALIZE ON OFFENSE AND
BAYSIDE'S DEFENSE ALLOWED
CLOSE TO NOTHING THROUGHT
THE AIR OR ON THE GROUND.
HERE IT'S FOURTH DOWN AND
THE MARLINS STOP THE
KNIGHTS SHORT.
BAYSIDE NOW WITH IT JUST
BEFORE HALF TIME AND
TAJAE POLLAND HEAVES IT
DEEP TO FIND
MALIK JOHNSON FOR THE
SCORE!
BAYSIDE WINS EASILY ON
THE ROAD THIRTY TO EIGHT
FIRST COLONIAL, TRYING TO

AFTER AN EMOTIONAL WIN
AGAINST OSCAR SMITH LAST
SATURDAY AND WITH ONLY
FIVE
DAYS TO PREPARE UNBEATEN
INDIAN RIVER WITH AN EASY
49-NOTHING WIN OVER
GRASSFIELD.
INDIAN RIVER CONTROLING
THIS GAME FROM THE GET

AND THEN THE DEEP BOMB TO
DESEAN
CROMELL, 41 YARD
TOUCHDOWN PASS.
BROOKS, 9 OF 11 FOR 205
YARDS AND 3 TOUCHDOWNS.
INDIAN RIVER WINS IT OVER
GRASSFIELD 49-0.
IF THE BRAVES WIN NEXT
WEEK AGAINST WESTERN
BRANCH, THEY WILL CLINCH
THEIR FIRST
SOUTHEASTERN DISTRICT
TITLE IN 22 YEARS.
BUT REMEMBER INDIAN RIVER
IS A DIVISION FIVE TEAM
AND HAS A GOOD CHANCE TO
WIN A STATE
CHAMPIONSHIP IN THAT
DIVISION.
BUT OSCAR SMITH IS ONE OF
THE TOP TEAMS IN THE
STATE IN DIVISION SIX AND
COULD VERY
WELL WIN A STATE
CHAMPIONSHIP AS WELL.
TONIGHT OSCAR SMITH TAKES
ON WESTERN BRANCH AND
NATHAN EPSTIEN WAS THERE
WITH THE GAME OF THE
WEEK.
YOU CAN IMAGINE ALL TEH
SLIPPING AND SLIDING
GOING
ON AT THIS GAME TONIGHT,
ESPECIALLY WITH
CONDITIONS LIKE THESE.
PUDDLES ALL OVER THE
PLACE, IT'S WET, IT'S
COLD, IT'S STILL RAINING
A LITTLE BIT. THIS PLACE
IS USUALLY PACKED,
ESPECIALLY FOR A
GAME THEIR RIVALS FROM
OSCAR SMITH, BUT ALL
THERE WAS TONIGHT, A
GROUP OF SPIRITED
STUDENTS- AND I'M
SURE A LITTLE
COLD---HOPING TO CHEER
THEIR BRUINS ON TO THEIR
FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON.
OSCAR SMITH IN WHITE
WAISTING NO TIME. FIRST
DRIVE OF THE GAME HORACE
SAWYER INTO THE ENDZONE,
HE ACTUALLY PLAYED FOR
WESTERN BRANCH HIS
FRESHMAN YEAR. SCORES
AGAINST HIS FORMER TEAM.
ON THE SIDELINE TONIGHT,
THAT'S ALL-AMERICAN
DEFENSIVE BACK CAM'RON
KELLY, INJURED LAST WEEK
AGAINST INDIAN RIVER,
COULD BE OUT A FEW MORE
WEEKS. SO IN A
QUARTERBACK, BRIQUAN
HARRELL, ALSO A FORMER
BRUIN AND HE'S INTO THE
ENDZONE TO MAKE IT
17-NOTHING. OSCAR SMITH.
HEY,
WHAT GOOD IS A RAIN DAY
IF YOU CAN'T MESS AROUND
IN THE PUDDLES. BCACK TO
THE GAME AND OSCAR SMITH
IS
BACK TO WORK. THERE GOES
JOSEPH BRAY, ONE CUT UP
THE MIDDLE AND FORGET
ABOUT IT. HE'S GONE TO
MAKE IT 31-NOTHING
TIGERS. OSCAR SMITH
ROLLING, IT'S BEEN A
ROUGH SEASON FOR WESTERN
BRANCH, AND IT
GETS WORSE TONIGHT. JOSH
LEE IS PICKED OFF BY
RICKY WALKER, AND HE'S
GOING END TO END. ALL THE
WAY
FOR A PICK 6 AND OSCAR
SMITH IS BACK ON TRACK.
THEY TAKE THE WIN
38-NOTHING OVER WESTERN
BARNCH. IN CHESAPEAKE,
NATHAN EPSTEIN FOR FRIDAY
NIGHT FLIGHTS.
THE FINISH OF THE WEEK
TOOK PLACE IN SUFFOLK,
KING'S FORK HOSTING DEEP
CREEK.
KING'S FORK GETTING THE
EARLY PLAY ON DEFENSE.
KAHARI RODGERS COMES UP
WITH THE INTERCEPTION.
THEN THE BULLDOGS GETTING
IT DONE ON OFFENSE.
BRAHIM RIDDICK ROLLS OUT
AND HE FINDS BOBBY BOONE
JUNIOR FOR THE TOUCHDOWN.
DEEP CREEK ANSWERS RIGHT
BACK.
JAQUAN SPARROW, THE SHORT
TOUCHDOWN RUN.
LATE 4TH QUARTER.
KING'S FORK LED 10 TO 9.
BULLDOGS TRYING TO RUN
OUT THE CLOCK, BUT IT'S
THE DEEP CREEK DEFENSE
THAT
FORCES THE TURNOVER.
SO WITH TIME RUNNING OUT,
DEEP CREEK WITH A CHANCE
TO WIN THE GAME AND THEY
GO TO
THEIR KICKER, CAYDEN
DELLINGER AND HE KICKS
THE GAME WINNING FIELD
GOAL.
DEEP CREEK WITH THE COME
FROM BEHIND 12 TO 10 WIN
OVER KING'S FORK BEHIND
THE LEG
OF CAYDEN DELLINGER.
AND STILL TO COME ON
FRIDAY NIGHT FLIGHTS.

BISHOP SULLIVAN WAS
SUPPOSED TO PLAY THEIR

BECAUSE
OF THE RAIN, SCHOOL
OFFICALS DECIDED TO PLAY
THE CRUSADERS GAME
AGAINST LIFE
CHRISTIAN ACADEMY LAST
NIGHT.
EVEN BEFORE THE KICKOFF
EMOTIONS GOT A LITTLE
HIGH BETWEEN THESE TWO
TEAMS.
AND IT WAS THE BISHOP
SULLIVAN CRUSADERS MAKING
THE EARLY STATEMENT.
OPENING DRIVE, QUINTON
GREGEORY TAKES THE INSIDE
HANDOFF FROM COLT
MINSON ON HIS WAY TO A 58
YARD RUN.
LIFE CHRISTIAN WOULD KEEP
THE GAME CLOSE BUT THE
CRUSADERS WOULD ANSWER
WITH
THIS TD RUN AROUND THE
CORNER AGAIN ANOTHER
SCORE FOR GREGORY.
BUT WITH THE GAME ON THE
LINE AND TIME RUNNING OUT
FOR LIFE CHRISTIAN
ACADEMY....
FACING FOURTH AND 26....
THEIR OFFENSE WOULD
CONNECT ON THIS PASS DOWN
THE
FIELD--BUT GERRIAN
CHRISTOPHER COMES UP WITH
THE BIG STOP AND BISHOP
SULLIVAN

OVER CHRISTIAN ACADEMY.
