The Red
Raiders received the ball and did not miss a beat. Fullback Jake Alexander
capped off the drive with a one-yard touchdown run. Cade Ratliff’s extra point
made it 7-0. The Jaguars stalled on their first drive and that would be a
constant problem the entire night. On the Red Raiders next drive, they went to
the air. Quarterback Scottie Lee connected with Ray Grier for a 40-yard
touchdown reception. Ratliff’s extra point made it 14-0.
Down
14-0, the Jaguars knew they had to get something going. Being forced to punt,
the Jaguars faked it when punter/kicker Holt Cloninger instead ran it 40 yards
into Red Raiders territory. That would unfortunately be the biggest play for
Forestview offensively in the first half. The Jaguars were also able to force a
South Point fumble in the first quarter.
The Red
Raiders put another touchdown on the board in the second quarter when Lee
connected with Grier again, this time with a 49-yard touchdown pass. The extra
point kick was good. Both teams missed field goals in the second quarter. The
score would remain 21-0 at half-time.
The
Jaguars did start to come to life in the second half. Sparked by a 44-yard pass
from Jake Lee to Jake Long, the Jaguars were able to make it deep into Red
Raiders territory at the five-yard line. But Lee would be intercepted in the
end zone by Mario Brandon. He would have two on the night. That seemed to knock
out what life Forestview did have.
Late in
the third quarter, a big mistake doomed Forestview. The Jaguars would fumble a
punt return deep in their territory and South Point’s Nathan Hamilton returned
it 20 yards for a touchdown. The Red Raiders would continue the onslaught in
the fourth quarter. Alexander scored on a three-yard touchdown run and
wingback/backup fullback Ty Tinker finished it off with a four-yard touchdown
run.
Forestview
will travel to play Ashbrook next week. South Point will host Clover. Clover
plays at home against Hunter Huss tonight.
