The Reeds Spring Wolves and Branson Pirates both saw their football seasons come to an end last night in District Semi-Final losses.
There is an old saying in Sports that it is hard to beat a Good team twice in the same season. That was the task that faced Reeds Spring last night. The Wolves fell to Mt Vernon 26-20 in front of a big crowd at Carl Langley Field. In what turned out to be a great high school football game the Wolves came up sort in a game that was totally unlike the one these two played in Mid-August. My short report can be found at Wolves Fall
Meanwhile the Branson Pirates knew they had a very tall task ahead of them. And for most of the first three quarters they looked up to it. Branson was within one score at 28-20. But from that point, Branson would not score again and the Nations most prolific offense got rolling. In the end it was a 56-20 victory for the Falcons. The season comes to an end for the Pirates at 3-8.
