Russell 36 Lewis County 20

[ryanparker]

Lewis County put up a good fight with very impressive performances from their QB Cooper, wide receiver #2, and fullback. They ran for over 200 yards, passed for over 200 yards, and won the time of possession battle going away. Lewis County's program is definitely headed in the right direction. Between Fleming County, West Carter, and Lewis County, the once "weak" district that Russell and Mason County typically dominate is getting a bit stronger.

 

Lewis County's main problem was a couple of fumbles and their complete inability to stop Russell's running game. Every time they would make a great offensive drive to get back into the game, Travis Jones or Will Rice from Russell would be headed to end zone shortly thereafter to keep the Lions at bay.

 

All in all, it was a good game by Lewis County, though, and a good win for Russell. I'll say it again, Travis Jones has gotten better and better every week to the point where I now think he's right up there with Josh Gross and Kasey Clark. The guy is good.

Congrats to the Devils on the win. This one sounds like Lewis played well and gave them a decent game for a while.
