Jr. Prep vs. Woodberry Forest
Tuesday night the Blue Devils fell victim to Woodberry Forest School 6-12. Fork Union had several distractions throughout the course of the week leading up to this Tuesday's game. This was reflective of the first half as Fork Union fell to a 0-12 deficit in the first half.
The team was challenged at the half to come out and stop Woodberry on the first drive and then drive down and score to give us the opportunity to win. The boys did just that. In the meantime we lost our starting QB on the first offensive play to injury. However, our back up QB put together a great drive, which was capped off by a 12 yard reception for a TD.
From there the Blue Devils defense stepped up several times to hold off Woodberry Forest School and with another late charge by the offense FUMA put themselves in position to win the game. Later in that drive, FUMA was faced with a 4th down conversion which was ultimately intercepted, but our receiver was interfered with on the play. In the end, through a lot of set backs and distractions the boys once again pulled together in the 2nd half to put up a great fight and play together as a team!
FUMA plays host next to St. Christopher's School on Wednesday, October 3rd at 4:00pm. We hope to see you at the game!
