The Newberry Bulldogs parlayed three Greer turnovers into 18 points Friday night as the visiting Bulldogs came into Dooley Field and defeated the Greer Yellow Jackets by the score of 25-20. They got an early 7-0 lead, & then tacked on a field goal after a Greer fumble to make it 10-0. Sinclair Cannon then ripped off a 59 yard scoring run to close the gap to 10-7 at the half. Another Yellow Jacket fumble put the Bulldogs into scoring position and they took advantage with a T.D. to make it 16-7. The extra point was botched, but quarterback J.J. Jeter scored on the play, getting them two points instead of one to make it 18-7. Greer rallied with a quick score by Durrell Burnette to close within 18-13, as Greer's two point try failed. Newberry looked like they might have iced it in the 4th quarter with another touchdown, this a 23 yard run to make it 25-13. But Greer wouldn't quit, as they marched downfield and scored in less than 3 minutes on another Cannon run, to make it 25-20 after Collier Smith's extra point. A great defensive stand by the defense gave the offense the ball back with under 3 minutes to play and a chance to win it with a touchdown. They then drove it to the Newberry 31, where on 4th and one with a minute to play, Cannon was stopped short of the marker, and the Bulldogs ran out the clock. Although the Jackets trailed for the whole game, had costly turnovers, and had to climb uphill the entire way, it was still encouraging to have a shot at winning it at the end. The Poinsett Grocery players of the game were Sinclair Cannon on offense with 176 yards rushing, and Andrew Smith on defense. Greer will travel to Riverside this Friday night to face the Warriors.
