Atlantic Coast HS- The Fletcher Senators improved to 4-0 overall and 1-0 in district play on the season with a hard fought 14-7 victory over the Atlantic Coast Stingrays Friday Night. Atlantic Coast fell to 0-4 and 0-1 in district play. Neither team seemed to want the victory at first as both teams combined to punt the ball 6 times in the first quarter. But in the second quarter Fletcher would strike first as Trevon Williams scored the game’s first touchdown to put Fletcher up 7-0.

Atlantic Coast would respond with a 65 yard touchdown run by RB Jonathan Ealy to tie the game 7-7. The score pumped up the Atlantic Coast crowd and the Stingray team. A team who was desperate for a win on the season.

Atlantic Coast missed several scoring opportunities including an interception thrown with a minute left in the half. Fletcher failed to make Atlantic Coast pay by committing costly turnovers themselves. Two of their fumbles on the night would be recovered by Darius Idelbird.
