Indians Lose to Northwood

The Rural Retreat Indians went down to the Northwood Panthers on Senior Night 28-6, but the Indians gave a good effort. Chase Heldreth did well, but there were a lot of fumbles on the receiving and rushing end. It was very even until the fourth quarter, as the Northwood Panthers jumped out by fifteen, and the Indians brought in Wyatt Sowers. It was a sad sight for Sowers as his first pass was picked off, and taken about 55 yards to paydirt, to push the lead to 22. This was the final score as neither team scored again. The Indians have to play the George Wythe Maroons at Wytheville this week, a game that everyone is looking for, including me, to settle the rivalry for the year.
