Five rushing touchdowns, including three from Trevon Hester, led the Northeast Rams to a decisive 35-21 victory over the Northern Guilford Nighthawks at Bill Bookout Stadium Friday night. The first quarter was penalty-ridden and featured sloppy play from both teams. An unusual fumble by the sure-handed Northern Guilford and Wake Forest-bound Michael Frogge inside the Northern 20-yard line gave the Rams a chance to score, but the Northern defense answered and held the Rams to four-and-out. Northeast began the scoring with Hester’s first touchdown of the night with 9:10 remaining in the second quarter. The Nighthawks were able to answer…
The Northern Guilford Nighthawks dominated the first half of Friday night’s game with Ragsdale at Johnny Roscoe Stadium, but in the second half, the Nighthawks let the Tigers back in the game with penalties and weak offense. In the first quarter, the Ragsdale offense failed to get momentum. Northern’s punt defense was tackling the Ragsdale punter Bradley Tullar before he could get the kick off in what appeared to be a rugby-style kick instead of a punt. This set up Northern’s first scoring drive of the game. The Nighthawks started on the Tigers’ 49-yard line and drove down field with…
Northern Guilford’s defense produced 14 second quarter points to change the momentum in what was a back and forth game early, and give the Nighthawks a 42-14 victory over the Northeast Guilford Rams at Johnny Roscoe Stadium on Friday night. After Northern fumbled on their first play from scrimmage, Northeast came up big facing fourth-and-three. A 47-yard pass from Justin Wilson to Jaydon Hall put the Rams on the Nighthawk two. From there, the Rams handed off to Davion Swain to get the scoring underway early in the first quarter. Northeast was ahead 6-0 after their two-point conversion attempt failed.…

Northwest has begun the season undefeated with a record of (3-0). The Vikings’ ground success has been in large part because of double threat Jacob Hardy who has…
The matchup between the Page Pirates and the Northern Guilford was a one-sided contest; however, it took until the second half for the Pirates to trounce the Nighthawks in what ended as a 48-0 Page victory. The Pirates failed to execute on three possessions inside the red zone and led just 6-0 at halftime, but four touchdowns in three minutes and four seconds, put the game out of reach. One constant throughout the night was the Page defense, which held Northern to just 24 total yards in the first half and forced two turnovers. The Pirate defense didn’t let up…
