Liberty County Tops Northview (With Photo Gallery)

October 10, 2015

Liberty County beat the Northview Chiefs 37-14 Friday night, which was homecoming for the Chiefs.

Liberty County intercepted a Northview pass two plays into the first quarter and were held to just a field goal by the Northview defense. The Chiefs answered to make it 7-3 at the half.

“It was a good ballgame at halftime,” Northview Coach Sid Wheatley said. “We played really good defense and a good passing game. They made some adjustments and came back and controlled the game in the second half. They got up by two touchdowns and we cut it to one….but it went downhill for us fast.”

Liberty County went on for the win 37-14.

“You’ve got to give them credit. They made those big plays that you can not give up and are back-breakers in a competitive game.”

The Chiefs will travel to Jay next Friday night for their first of just two district games of the regular season. The Chiefs are in a three-team District 1A with Jay and Baker.

“Win a district game next week and you are in the playoffs. These kids are going to have to regroup, and they are going to have to come back. We’ve got to have a really, really good week and practice,” he said . “We’ve got to get some things fixed.”

    There’s nothing good about this game unless you’re from Liberty County. There’s much that can be said about this game in miscues, penalties, and turnovers, but it’s the safety that takes the prize. What has happened to Northview football?

    You can’t have 150 yards of penalties and expect to win a ballgame!
