Raiders Fall To Undefeated Liberty Christian

Raider running back Myles Poindexter (in red) battles for yardage against a host of Bulldog tacklers.

Liberty Christian won the battle of special teams as the Bulldogs held on to defeat North Cross 24-14 last Friday at Thomas Field. Liberty Christian used a blocked punt for a safety and subsequent 62-yard punt return to help build a 15-0 first quarter lead they would never relinquish. The Bulldogs would increase the lead to 24-0 in the third quarter before North Cross closed the gap on a 81-yard touchdown pass from Thomas Weaver to Brandon Trent and a 6-yard strike to Fuller Clark. The Raider defense held tough against the bigger Liberty Christian squad, but the deficit proved too much to overcome in the VIC matchup. Liberty improved to 6-0 (1-0 VIC), North Cross fell to 5-2 (2-1 VIC).
