Friday Football Recaps for September 17th, 2021

Sep 17, 2021 at 11:13 pm by WGNS


Gabe Walker ran for 225 yards on 29-carries and had four touchdowns as Stewarts Creek gets the first win in program history over Blackman 45-35. The Blaze scored the first two touchdowns of the game, taking a 13-0 lead before the Red Hawks got on the board just before the end of the first quarter.

Blackman would answer with this six-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jack Risner to tight end Ben Marshall:

Stewarts Creek would score twice more to tie the game at 21-21 before an Upton Bellenfant 40-yard field goal gave them a 24-21 lead at the half. Red Hawks running back Gabe Walker found the end zone four times in the game, three in the second half, including this 17-yard run with seconds to left in the third quarter:

That gave Stewarts Creek a 38-21 lead and the Blaze never got closer than 10 points. La Vergne will travel to Stewarts Creek while Blackman will host Antioch next Friday in their last regular season home game.

Riverdale moves to 5-0 after a 33-0 win over previously undefeated Rockvale. WGNS' Clark Blair shared this report after the game:

Oakland, after having games canceled the last two weeks, got back on the field against rival Siegel with a 49-7 win. WGNS' Danny Brewer shared his thought on the game:

MTCS traveled to Jackson to play Trinity Christian Academy. Eli Wilson led the way offensively with two rushing touchdowns. Wilson had an interception in the first half and Luke Scheffler sealed the win with an 85 yard pick six. The Cougars return home next week to take on Lakeway Christian.
