WARRENTON -- Franklinton’s uptempo spread offense and Warren County’s tight-bunch, run-oriented power attack provided quite a contrast during Friday’s crucial Northern Carolina Conference event at the WCHS Eagles Nest.
The back-and-forth battle of wins wasn’t decided until Franklinton quarterback Daquan Neal found Jackson Hooton with a 7-yard touchdown pass with just 19 seconds to play.
BUNN -- It wasn’t Bunn’s prettiest performance of the season, but it was still enough to keep the Wildcats undefeated in Northern Carolina Conference gridiron action.
