On fourth down at the three-yard line with the final seconds ticking off the first half, Eagle quarterback Stan Sims took the snap and ran a sweep toward the right front piling of the end zone. Sims crossed the goal line with 13.4 seconds left in the half, and Alvarez’s extra point made the halftime score 14-8. South Columbus took the second-half kickoff and used 12 plays to advance the ball 63 yards. A 17-yard pass to tight end Reid Worley, and back-to-back carries of 14 and 10 yards by Dan- iels were the big gainers of the set. McKever scored on another one-yard sneak with 7 minutes, 36 seconds left in the game. He added another two-point conversion run After forcing East Bladen to punt on its next possession, the Stallions used nine plays to march 68 yards for its final scoring drive of the game. A 30-yard pass from McKever to Dixon and a 15-yard sprint by Daniels, along with a key 10-yard fourth-down run by McKever to the six-yard line, were the big plays. Dixon rambled over for the touchdown on the next snap. East Bladen jumped off-sides on the PAT kicking attempt, moving the ball half the distance to the goal. McKever came back on the field and added his third two-point conversion run of the night to make the score 24-14 with 2:12 left in the third quarter. Herring’s 64-yard run on East Bladen’s next snap from scrim- mage gave the Eagles the football at the Stallion 12-yard line.
