Robert is a Family 👪 man and takes great pride in his efforts. He throws in being Kind at no extra charge !!

Carroll County Middle School 🏫 Football is hosting the Radford Bobcats tonight at 5:30 pm.

Great opening as the Middle School Chorus packed themselves into the Press Box and performed the National Anthem !

Radford received the opening kickoff and marched down the field to take an early 8-0 lead..

Carroll County has converted twice for first downs on their opening drive!

Once on 4th and 1 and then again on 3rd down. Two more conversions have the team knocking on the door 🚪 of the Red Zone as the 1st quarter ends.

Mr. Edmonds is behind the 🎤 and doing a tremendous job 👏

2nd quarter opens with CC facing a 4th and 16 from the Radford 31. With the help of a face mask penalty CC records a fifth First Down on their opening drive.

Great opening drive ends on a turnover on downs at 4:13. CC picks up five first downs and controlled the ball for over 9 minutes !

More 2 Follow !

Radford TO with 2:00 on the Clock ⏰ in the second quarter. Bobcats inside the CC Red Zone.

Radford scores on a 6 yard TD pass with 0:45 left on the clock ⏰. PAT pending. CC defends the 2-point conversion to hold it to 14-0.

CC begins it second possession with 0:38.3 on the clock ⏰, ball on our 25.

Two plays take us down to 0:04.1 and CC calls 📞 a TO. Halftime at 6:18…..

6:29 – 2nd Half Kickoff….

CC 🏈 1 & 10, own 30

Carroll County punts the ball back to Radford, Bobcats start at CC 48 (5:27).

Not sure if any other opponent will feature the vertical passing game that Radford has.

Radford converts 3rd and 10, now at 37. Next play turns out to be a 37 yard TD (4:25). PAT – 2 point stopped, 20-0, flag on play on offense – kickoff coming.

Carroll County returns kickoff across midfield – 1st and 10, R 45 yard line. New QB behind center for CC on this drive. 4th and 15, ball on Midfield (2:00) CC punts the ball back to Radford (1:48), Bobcats on their own 38.

Worth repeating, Radford offense looks very advanced for Middle School football. CC makes a great stop ✋ on defense but play nullified by horse collar flag.

Radford punches it in on the next play, 8 yard TD (0:29). Two point conversation makes it 28-0.

CC back on offense, 1st and 10 from their own 46 (0:28.6).

Carroll County pass intercepted and returned for a TD (0:19.2), 2 point pass play makes it 36-0.

Now it becomes about gaining confidence for Carroll County. Moving the chains ⛓ and getting the offense back on track.

Next play should end the 3rd quarter.

7:05 – Headed to the final 8:00 now, Cavs facing a 2nd and 6 from their 32

3rd and 4 now, FD would be a great first step. CC set to punt from 34 yard line. Change of possession at 6:38 (4)

Radford TO (2:45), 1st and 10 from CC 30 yard line.

Have a Blessed Night 🌙

Late Note 📝 – I was glad to see Radford take a knee at the end of the game.

Big, Big Fan of Head Coach Ryan Largen and look forward to watching 👀 his team grow under his leadership !!

Carroll County graduate 🎓 Madison Stockner appeared on the leaders board twice for the match.

3 Aces & 4 Blocks !
