South Granville held<br />
off the hard charging<br />
Northwood Chargers for a<br />
40-30 homecoming win.<br />
The Vikings and the<br />
Chargers traded<br />
possessions and battled to<br />
a scoreless first quarter.<br />
The Chargers got on<br />
the board first in the<br />
second quarter on a 22-<br />
yard pass completion for a<br />
touchdown. Northwood<br />
led 7-0 after converting<br />
the extra point.<br />
The South Granville<br />
backfield was featured on<br />
the next drive. Sean<br />
Bowman and Kenny Walls<br />
zipped through the holes<br />
opened by the offensive<br />
line for a total of 31 yards.<br />
While Northwood waited<br />
for the next running back<br />
carry, Taz Strudwick<br />
slipped past defenders and<br />
was wide open to receive<br />
a 43-yard touchdown pass<br />
from Matt McCutcheon.<br />
Corey Phillips converted<br />
the extra point to tie the<br />
score at 7 all with 4:24<br />
remaining in the second<br />
quarter.<br />
Northwood kicked a<br />
23-yard field goal to take<br />
a 10-7 lead at the half.<br />
The Vikings went to the<br />
air on the first series in the<br />
second half. McCutcheon<br />
found Craig Wilkie open<br />
for a 27-yard reception.<br />
Walls found open running<br />
after the pass play and<br />
ripped off 15 yards in four<br />
carries. McCutcheon<br />
found Josh Lawler open<br />
deep in the end zone for a<br />
19-yard touchdown pass<br />
with 7:36 to go in the third<br />
quarter. The extra point<br />
was blocked and the<br />
Vikings held a 13-10 lead.<br />
South Granville decided to<br />
grind it out on the next<br />
possession. McCutcheon,<br />
Walls, Brysen Thorpe and<br />
Casey Flowers carried the<br />
ball on this drive. Thorpe<br />
scored on a one yard run<br />
with 2:41 remaining in the<br />
third quarter. Phillips<br />
converted the extra point<br />
and South Granville led<br />
20-10.<br />
The Vikings’ defense<br />
shut down the next<br />
Northwood drive and<br />
forced a punt. South<br />
Granville and Northwood<br />
literally rode Walls’ back<br />
on the next touchdown.<br />
The Chargers looked to<br />
have Walls stopped at the<br />
five, but his sheer will and<br />
determination allowed<br />
him to score. Phillips<br />
added the PAT and South<br />
Granville led 27-10.<br />
Cory Lomena picked<br />
off a Charger pass at the<br />
34-yard line and turned on<br />
the after burners to race<br />
away from the Northwood<br />
defenders for a 66-yard<br />
touchdown. The extra<br />
points failed and South<br />
Granville held a 33-10<br />
lead.<br />
Walls again broke the<br />
Chargers with a 67-yard<br />
touchdown run with 6:36<br />
left in the game. Phillips<br />
converted the extra points<br />
and the Vikings held a 40-<br />
10 lead.<br />
Northwood made the<br />
final six minutes of the<br />
game interesting by<br />
scoring three touchdowns<br />
to make the final score 40-<br />
30in favor of the Vikings.<br />
Kenny Walls led the<br />
Vikings with 161 yards<br />
