Cavaliers soar over Falcons in Thursday night showdown

The Nation Ford Falcon’s varsity football game was moved to Thursday night due to expected bad weather on Friday. Despite the shortened practice week, the Richland Northeast Cavaliers showed up to play football and scored quickly on the opening drive of the night. It was the beginning of an offensive showcase as Nation Ford returned the favor with their own opening drive touchdown. Pretty soon the two teams were trading touchdowns until the start of the second half when Richland Northeast scored 22 unanswered points. Nation Ford lost 49-59 to the Cavaliers and the Falcons drop to 1-3 on the season. Nation Ford opens its Region 3-5A schedule next week with a road trip to Rock Hill’s Northwestern High School.
