Sept. 7th, 2002 --- L.C. Bird 27 -- G.W. 20
Frustrating!!!
G.W.'s Kenny Lewis vaults over Bird defenders on his
way to a 49-yard touchdown run!
What a frustrating game! The Eagles ended two games worth of shutouts on the opening play of the game. Bird scored twice to take a 13-6 lead. But Kenny Lewis struck again to make it 13-12 Bird at the break. The Skyhawks scored in the third to make it 20-12, but Kenny did it again, scoring from eight yards out. Jon Fulton added the two-point conversion to tie it at 20-20. Then Bird went on one of their long drives. A fourth-down reverse pass to the five yard line set up the go-ahead score with less than 2:00 left in the game. The Eagles drove down to the Bird 35, but an interception ended the game. Bird controlled the clock, with nearly 38:00 of possession, and running 66 plays to G.W.'s 23.
