ELIZABETHTOWN - By dominating field position and coming up with big defensive stops time after time, the South Columbus Stallion football team added another jewel to its long history of significant football playoff victories Fri- day night. Coach Jake Fonvielle’s Stal- lions made amends for an earlier 36-21 loss to Waccamaw 2A-3A Conference rival East Bladen by shutting out the host Eagles 10-0 in the third round of the state 2A playoffs. The SCHS win also avenged a 26-12 loss to the East Bladen squad in the second round of last year’s playoffs. South Columbus got a 15- yard touchdown pass from Pharoah McKever to Tanner Duncan on the Stallions’ sec- ond possession of the evening, and kicker Rasheed Williams drilled a 34-yard field goal late in the second quarter for the game’s only points. It was the only shutout in all 32 third-round playoff games played by North Carolina teams Friday night. “This is the best defensive effort I’ve ever been associated with,” said Fonvielle, whose Staff photos by Mark Gilchrist squad advanced the ball inside Game on the line the SCHS 20-yard line only The South Columbus defensive unit (left) attacks the East Bladen offense on a short yardage down in Friday’s third-round game of the state 2A once. “East Bladen has had a high school football playoffs at Elizabethtown.
