Riverside 28 vs. Frazier 0

 

Logo  

 

  • It was a crisp cool night for the opening round of high school playoff football. It was all Riverside throughout this one. Riverside did play a sloppy game, but Frazier’s play was ever sloppier. There were a laundry list of flags to end the first half, which took forever with less than two minutes left. Riverside came out swinging in the second half and Frazier continued to get penalties and no points. The final score was Riverside-28 Frazier-0.
