JV Football

JV Football took on Arendell Parrot on Thursday, September 17th and won in decisive fashion 54-26. Scoring on both offense and defense the team stayed competitive and intense throughout the game. Jack Burke returned an interception for an exciting touchdown and Christian Shaw did a lot of work on the ground as a receiver, accounting for 4 touchdowns. Other standouts were Luke Deihl who had a rushing touchdown, and Charlie Matthews who threw 2 more to a steady-handed Hutch Marshall. Hutch was also shifty and successful on the goal-line fade. The O-Line once again played excellent, opening up the middle of the field for countless big runs. It was a complete team victory and Coach Hunter Whitworth said he's "proud of their effort and execution". The JV boys play again on September 23rd against SandHills Christian School in an away match. 

The Warriors took the field again on Thursday, September 9th in an away match against Faith Christian School and came off victorious after some hard running and tough stops by the defense. In convincing fashion, the JV boys played hard and supported one another through the entire competition. Christian Shaw and Luke Deihl combined for almost 200 yard on the ground and each brought in touchdowns, (2 and 1 respectively). "The offensive line played very well", said Coach Hunter Whitworth, but "perhaps the most impressive thing was the defense effort, holding Faith scoreless". He added, the team "played with complete tenacity for the whole game, limiting big plays and never allowing the opposing offense to be comfortable". What a great Warrior Win! Come support our JV Boys at a home game this week on Thursday at 6pm on the John A. Murray field. 

In their first game of the season, JV Football took care of business playing against Rocky Mount on Wednesday at home behind a big, supportive crowd. The team was about their business and ready to go as their eagerness of the first game showed in their high energy on and off the field. The win over Rocky Mount was had behind a lot of hard running by Christian Shaw and Luke Diehl. The teams effort and execution was "great to see", said Coach Whitworth. Charlie Matthews and Hutch Marshall connected on several deep passes. The defense was really working hard the whole game and came up with some big plays to help the Warriors out. Jake Stickney contributed an athletic interception that continued to boost the team and they finished the game with a score of 16-6. Their next match up is September 9th at Faith Christian.
