[ngg_images gallery_ids=”530″ display_type=”ds-nextgen_royalslider”]

A Friday matchup between two, 2-0 teams, was kicked off with a specialty ceremony in honor of the victims of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks by the Woodbridge marching band, color guard, players and cheerleaders.
 
Kalel Grant, received the kickoff for Woodbridge to start the game. Despite a fumble on the second down of the drive, Woodbridge was able to recover and start another set of downs on their 30-yard line. Unable to convert, Battlefield received the ball quickly.
 
With their first possession, and 5:08 left in the first quarter, Battlefield scored the first touchdown of the game by running back, Chris Ferrill. A turnover on downs by Woodbridge, put Battlefield in great field position, mid-field, and allowed for a 50-yard touchdown within 3-minutes of their previous score. 
 
At 9:52 in the second, Kalel Grant received a deep pass to the right and picked up an additional 20 yards to put the Viking’s on Battlefield’s 20-yard line. Another first down moved the chains inside the ten for a first and goal opportunity. 
 
However, Battlefield’s defense held Woodbridge to only a field goal late in the second quarter. Two strong running plays by Brandon Berry, set the Bobcats up for an additional scoring opportunity. A touchdown scored by Collin Parker and the extra point, placed a total of 3 scores on the board for Battlefield. 
 
A deep pass by quarterback, Brandon Pitt to Wide Receiver, Dominic Benson put the Vikings on the 3-yard line with a fresh set of downs. For the second time in the game, the Vikings were unable to score in the red zone. On fourth down, Brandon threw an interception to Mason Crawford and ended the half.
 
Bobcats led at halftime, 21-3.
 
In the second half, Battlefield received the kickoff. A long run by Berry put the Bobcats on the Vikings 30-yard and in close scoring position. Kicker, Brendan Freehan added to the Battlefield score and increased the lead by 21 points.
 
Woodbridge continued the fight in the second half with a broken up pass by Kalel Grant, holding Battlefield and giving Vikings control of the football on the 41-yard line.
 
An injury to Pitt, allowed for back-up quarterback, Ousmane Barry to come into the game midway through the third quarter.
 
A poor punt by Woodbridge put the Bobcats in Viking’s territory easily. With 7:38 left in the game, Battlefield’s kicker put a 31-yard field goal on the scoreboard.
 
With a little more than 7 minutes left in the game, Woodbridge found themselves on the 11-yard line and in scoring position. Vikings found themselves in another 4th down situation. Choosing to go for the score, instead of kicking the field goal, netted zero points.
 
The final score of the game was 27-3, Battlefield.
