I was at the game and stayed until the fourth quarter. I will give a synopsis of how things went down...

Valley was penalized on the opening kickoff, and had to start deep in their own zone. A quick punt gave East Ridge good field position and the Warriors semed to be in good shape. But a fumble turned the ball back over to Valley and it was all downhill from there for the Warriors. SV scored a TD on that possession, then after a punt Valley capped off a long drive with another TD. SV would score once more just before the half to make the halftime score 22-0.

Coming out of the break, East Ridge scored a TD to pull within 22-6, but it would get no closer. ER was unable to stop Valley's ground game, and some costly turnovers allowed things to get out of hand. When I left, SV had just rung up their fourth TD of the 3rd quarter, and with the score having ballooned to 48-6, the game was pretty much over.

I don't have stats, but I know that SV put up some good numbers running the ball. They didn't look to throw much, unless it was in the fourth after I left. ER did actually look to pass a few more times, and their QB seemed to have some talent, but this just wasn't their night.

Congrats to Valley, good way to start the season. Good luck to both teams in their next game.
