Reeds Spring took a little while to get things going last night, but once they did, they did it in a big way.
It took only three plays for Logan-Rogersville to get on the scoreboard. Bronson Tavenner hooked up with Ryker Strong going down the right sideline for a 61 yard touchdown only 1:31 into the game. After a Reeds Spring turnover the two would connect again for another score less than two minutes later. However, that would be the end of the scoring for the visitors to Carl Langley Field.
Reeds Spring would pick things up from that point and score the last 53 points of the game in moving to 2-2 on the season and remain undefeated in COC-small play.
Kelly Newton would lead the way on the ground. The senior fullback rode the dominating performance of his offensive line and his quick to the hole skills to once again eclipse the century mark. He would score on runs of 40 and 43 yards.
Blake Gronvold would score twice on the ground and added to it by throwing for a couple more scores. His connections with Logen Plumb was a matchup that the Wildcats had no answer for. The senior receiver caught one of the two TDs from Gronvold.
Seth Stamps would catch the other touchdown toss. However, he was not done there. The Wolves safety made a great break on the ball and picked off Tavenner pass and went untouched the other way into the endzone.
Cole Watson would score the other Wolves touchdown.
Reeds Spring punted only once on the night, and that was late in the game, when they were just running clock.
As much as the offense rolled. The defense was just as dominating. After those first two drives the Wildcats had trouble doing much of anything.
Thats two wins in a row for Reeds Spring. And gets the overall record back to .500. The will host Springfield Central next week for Homecoming.
Branson continues to open some eyes as they traveled up to state-ranked Ozark and came way form their long time rival with a 17-14 victory. They moved to 2-2 on the season.
For the second week in a row, a tri-lakes team made its way to Bolivar to challenge the Liberators but this one did not get the same result. Bolivar blanked Hollister 42-0 to get their first win of the year and drop the Tiges to 2-2.
And finally since 2-2 seems to be the theme of the area, far be it from Forsyth to break that trend. The Panthers, playing in their first Varsity home game took care of Diamond, 48-33 to pick up their second win.
