At the third, the Dragons suddenly swooped in pulling off a big interception to gain possession of the ball. Dupont&#8217;s short lived possession of the ball resulted in a fumble recovered by Southside. As the Knight&#8217;s offense aligned the field, Quarterback Malik Neely would valiantly run the first touchdown in the game. Southside expediently sliced onto the scoreboard with an early 7-0 lead.
