FS squibs the kickoff to prevent another long return but East mishandles it and FS gets it at the East 31. 

Dickerson to Brevin Scott 15 yard TD pass. FS 17-7 with 26 seconds before the half. 

3 yard TD run for Jackson McCool of the Raiders. FS 10-7 with 2:26 left till the half. 

One of those big kickoff returns I was concerned about. East runs it to the FS 35 and horse collar penalty puts it at the FS 20. 

30 yard field goal by Cody Alexander. FS 10-0 at 4:37 in second. 

Wildcats force a fumble and recover it at the East 13. 

Mathias Dickerson to Blake McPherson 49 yard TD pass. FS 7-0 at 6:48 in second. Nice run by McPherson after the short pass. 

East punts to FS 27. 

FS punts to East 25. 

End first no score. Raiders have moved the ball but have scored nothing in two red zone trips. 

FS stops East at the FS 6 yard line on fourth down. 

FS punts to East 47. 

East misses a 31 yard field goal. FS takes over at its own 20 at 7:51 in first. No score. 

East starts at the 41. Parsley is not playing. 

Raiders to receive.  

If Parsley plays the Raiders have a good shot at this one. He has given FS fits when they played before. If he can’t go FS should win comfortably as long as they don’t give up the big kickoff returns. 

The way the RPI looks, somebody from spots 4-10 will have a good shot at getting to the title game. If the favorites hold up in the playoffs, the West 1-4 game in round 3 will likely be CAL vs. Central. Then the statewide 1-4 game in the semis would probably be CAL vs. LexCath. That’s assuming the higher ranked teams win their playoff matchups. The tough schedules played by Central and Lexington Catholic put their RPI numbers much lower than you might expect.

Look at the emotion by the player who made the game clinching stop, #8 Jackson Morris. This is one of the many reasons I love Friday night football. It means more than a lot of people realize.

Totally agree. I think it is football in its purest form. 

Raiders win their first ever district title tonight. Hard fought game. Hart wore down the FS defense in the 4th quarter. FS couldn’t run it at all in the second half and was able to pass it well on the last drive but too little too late. 

Final score Hart County wins the game 21-18 and their first ever district championship. Congratulations to Raider Nation. 

Kickoff goes out of bounds. Hart County only has to kneel down to clinch it. 

I wish FS had went to the passing game earlier but oh well. 

Dickerson keeps it for 2 points. Hart County 21-18 with only 26 seconds left. Even if FS recovers the onside kick, there’s just not much time left. 

Mathias Dickerson with a 2 yard keeper for the TD. FS going for two. 

FS at the 2 with 33 seconds left. Down 21-10.
