Tonight pitted two crosstown rivals fighting for second place in the Eastern District. The Maury Commodores (3-1) hosted the Lake Taylor Titans (2-1) at Powhatan Field. The two rivals appeared confident in pre-game as the teams warmed up and began a stand off at midfield with chants and chatter before kickoff. That was about as close the two foes would get in terms of equal competition on the night.

It was set up to be a defensive battle. In the end, the game was anything but that. Bethel had top college prospect Ricky Walker out for most of the game, and Bethel miscues kept any momentum from flowing for the Bruins.

Score another win for the girls, and for Norfolk Christian. Junior placekicker Courtney Ballou helped her team to a victory over HRA on September 6, and it went rather unnoticed. The 42-41, triple overtime victory came down to the foot of Ballou.

It’s a story you would hardly ever hear of. Parents are cheering and other high school coaches are nodding their heads in an understanding way. The head football coach of Union High School (UT) benched his entire team this week, not for a loss, but for their attitudes, poor grades, and for bullying classmates.

Poquoson may have the upper hand tonight when they visit York at Bailey Field, but the Falcons have some motivation. After starting their season 0-2 with losses to Churchland and New Kent, York finally got in the win column with a 30-12 victory over Warhill last week. It’s been a slow start for Coach Doug Pereira’s team, and its a trend that they don’t want to see continue.

The Bethel Bruins and the Heritage Hurricanes meet tonight in a battle that could determine the top of the Peninsula District. It’s hard to get out of the habit of talking about the “old PD.” Heritage comes in at 4-0, while Bethel comes in at 3-1. Their only loss was by one point to Western Branch.
