Football

Riverside 40 – East Chapel Hill 23

East Chapel Hill quarterback Drew Davis angrily paced the sideline during the fourth quarter of Friday night’s game. Injured by an out-of-bounds hit in the second quarter and then again by a sack in the third, he could only watch as the game spiraled out of control. His frustration was echoed in the overflowing student section, as East’s fans watched their Wildcats lose on homecoming to previously winless Riverside (1-5).

After building a 20-7 lead and riding high on the spirit of the night, East Chapel Hill (1-6) seemed destined to extend its homecoming win streak to two. Rather than providing further proof that the program had turned the corner, however, the game took a sickly turn for the Wildcats after Davis was sidelined with a shoulder injury. Despite his brief return in the third quarter, it was clear that East’s offensive momentum was gone. Wildcat fans could only shake their heads as the Pirates of Riverside outscored their team 33-3 after the midway point of the second quarter.

Riverside struck first, but was able to finally regain the lead thanks to a botched punt attempt by Tyler Klimko, filling in for Davis, who usually handles East’s punting duties. A 27-yard Andrew Moore field goal followed for the Wildcats, but that was all they would get for the rest of the game.

East will seek redemption, with or without Davis, this week against Northern Durham.

Carrboro 26 – Pfafftown Reagan 13

They’re good. If people hadn’t heard, Carrboro gave them an earful last week with a lights-out performance over 4A Ronald Reagan High.

Nassar Omar, who was on the receiving end of every one of Carrboro’s four touchdowns on Friday, finished the game with 231 total receiving yards and demi-god status among Jaguar fans. Amazingly, this accounted for only a little more than half of quarterback Derek Bryant’s total passing yardage, which amounted to an amazing 397 by game’s end.

Reagan, whose sizable defensive line all but precluded any sort of running attack on Carrboro’s part, lead 7-6 early on, but would not score again until late in the game. Meanwhile, the Jaguars kept their offensive output steady at a rate of one score per quarter.

Carrboro will host South Granville this Friday.
