Tackles and tempers

Tackles and tempers

By Heath Thrash

North Sand Mountain has lost the last sixteen attempts to beat the Plainview Bears.  They came to Rainsville with one thing on their mind, to win.

The game was heated from the very beginning.  North Sand Mountain fumbled early but held the Bears from scoring.

Plainview Quarterback Ben Williamson  suffered a minor injury and was replaced by his backup, Bailey Dukes.  Dukes threw an interception and North Sand Mountain’s, Eric George cashed in with a 60-yard touchdown.  Tempers flared and both sidelines decided to come discuss.  Personal fouls were handed out.  Ethan Jones blocked the PAT.

During the third, it was back and forth, without anyone scoring.

The Bisons stopped a fake punt and scored on a 21-yard field goal.  Final NSM 9, Plainview 0.

Plainview will travel Friday to take on New Hope.
