NORTH ENGLISH – Talk about riding into a low bridge!
Spotting their opponent an 8-6 lead, the Montezuma Braves hit English Valleys with a 29-0 scoring burst over just 2:35 of first quarter play. The Braves rolled to 423 yards of first half offense and a 63-26 lead.
You can guess the rest: The guys in the Bears uniforms got up, dusted themselves off and found their horses. But the Braves kept rolling and won 82-46 Friday night, Oct. 18.
The result took Montezuma’s season record to 6-2 and kept its playoff hopes very much alive.
