Ernest Ward Middle Eagles Soar Past Perdido Raiders

September 3, 2010

The Ernest Ward Middle School Eagles beat the Perdido Middle Raiders Thursday evening, 32-6.

The Eagles soared to a quick lead, 6-0, about two minutes into their season opener. With four minutes to go in the first quarter, the Eagles scored again. Then, in the second, Ernest Ward expanded their lead to 18-0.

Ernest Ward made it an all-Eagles first half, with a 32-0 lead at the buzzer. The Raiders managed to score just six in the second half, for the 32-6 final.

The Ernest Ward Middle School Eagles — the only middle school football team in Escambia County, Fla. — will be at home next Tuesday against Excel.
