Sept. 13, 2013 --- G.W. 21 E.C. Glass 17
Survival of the fittest!
It wasn't pretty but we'll take it! The G.W. Eagles and the E.C. Glass Hilltoppers renewed Southside Virginia's oldest rivalry after a three-year hiatus. After an early fumble, the Eagles went to the air to take a 7-0 first quarter lead. But the Hilltoppers stormed back. Using a methodical spread-option attack, Glass went on two long time-consuming drives in the first half to take a 14-7 lead into the break. In the second half, the Eagles once again dialed up their air attack to tie the game at 14-14. Early in the fourth, the Eagles thwarted a Glass blitz and lit them up for a score to take the lead! Glass scored a Field Goal to make it 21-17 with just over five minutes left to play. The Hilltoppers got the ball back with a minute-and-a-half left; but the Eagles' defense saved the day!
