Early gamble fails as Eagles fall at home

When Riverside Military Academy had a chance to finish a drive with a touchdown early in Friday’s Region 8-AA opener against Washington-Wilkes at Maginnis Field, Eagles coach Gary Downs knew he wanted to roll the dice. That’s why, facing a fourth-and-16 at the Tigers (4-0, 1-0 Region 8-AA) 32 on the game’s opening drive, Downs decided to keep the offense on the field. Although the pass from Eagles quarterback Collin Pettell was on target to his receiver in the end zone, it was broken up by a defender.
