Final score: @XBHS_Football 14, @CentralFB413 21. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Final play from scrimmage for the @XBHS_Football offense. Will Wood’s attempt to Sargent Chizmadia is shut down.

@CentralFB413 will take this one home! @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Davis’s touchdown doesn’t get the spotlight for too long.

Sargent Chizmadia takes it all the way back on the kickoff to keep it a game. 21-14 with 5:12 to go in the final quarter. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Not much going on in this 2nd half despite 2 big time runs from the Golden Eagles.

First was Rogers, this time a jet touch pass to Will Davis Jr. from 33 yards out. Gives @CentralFB413 a 21-7 lead. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

That’s one way to open up a half. Isaiah Rogers 86-yard SPRINT to give the Golden Eagles the lead back. 14-7 with 11 minutes to go in the 3rd quarter. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Halftime at Bette Field. @XBHS_Football 7, @CentralFB413 7.

A slow start to this game, Central will get the ball to start the 2nd half. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Will Wood from 19 yards out, evens up the scoring at seven a piece as the PAT is good. 7-7 with 3:11 remaining in the 2Q. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Field position gift is not enough, Jahir Charles on 4th and long gives it right back. Conor Kaene with the takeaway. @XBHS_Football regains control on their own five. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

End of Quarter 1: @XBHS_Football 0, @CentralFB413 7.

Xaverians 2nd drive stalls out again, this time the punt is BLOCKED. The golden eagles are within striking distance as they start their 2nd drive on the Hawks 21. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Xaverians first drive stalls out, Jahir Charles find Isaiah Rogers in the flat and Rogers does the rest. 21 yard sprint for the Notre Dame commit. PAT is good, 7-0 @CentralFB413 lead with 2:49 left in 1Q. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

Central wins the toss and elects to defer. @XBHS_Football ball to start. @newftbj

[Dante Iafrate @DanteIafrate]

@XBHS_Football takes on @CentralFB413. What a view as we are under 10 minutes until kickoff.

Jareth Staine is not suited up for Central, something to keep an eye on as this game unfolds.

I’ll be on the sidelines to provide you with live in-game updates. Friday night lights!
