G.W. used four special teams plays and two fourth-down touchdown passes to claim their third straight district championship---and the first-ever district title in the Western Valley District. Cave Spring got an early 7-0 lead, but G.W. recovered a muffed punt, then converted on fourth down to tie the game. Cave Spring scored again, but G.W. blocked the extra point to make it 13-7. Late in the first half, another fourth-down pass got G.W. into the end zone. Berkeley Furgurson made the extra point to give the Eagles a 14-13 lead. In the second half, Cave Spring missed a 50-yard Field Goal, but a penalty on G.W. set up a 45-yard attempt. Chris McDuffie blocked it to preserve the lead. With 2:00 left, Cave Spring lined up for a game-winning 25-yard Field Goal. It was NO GOOD! G.W. wins 14-13!!! |
