White Rallies Past Black With Late TD

WOODLAWN - Sophomore quarterback Aidan Moore hit tight end Braiden Kitchens for a 13-yard touchdown pass with 28 seconds left as the White team rallied late from two scores down to edge the Black team, 14-12, in the Woodlawn Black and White scrimmage game last Friday night at the Carl Jones Sports Complex. The Black team, led by senior quarterback Jaxson Martin, con‐trolled the first half and much of the second half before the White team finally started to put it to‐gether over the final 10 minutes. The scrimmage consisted of two 20-minute halves with a running clock. Each team had three timeouts and there were no live kicks. Jaxson Martin scored the first touchdown of the scrimmage on a 40-yard burst at the 11:47 mark of the first half. A twopoint conversion run by Jais King was stopped short of the goal to giv e the Black at 6-0 lead. The Black added another score on its first possession of the sec‐ond half when King dropped Moore for a four-yard loss on fourth-and-1 from the White 26 and Jaxson Martin scored his second TD three plays later on a 10-yard run. A fumbled snap snuffed out the two-point con‐version. White responded with its best drive of the game as Moore be‐gan to get more comfortable be‐hind center. Taking over at its own 20, White drove the 80 yards in 15 plays with Caleb Martin capping the march with a three-yard score. Moore ran in the two-pointer to make it 12-8 with 4:25 left in the scrimmage. Black looked like it was in po‐sition to put the game away with its running game as it steadily went 25 yards in four plays before a strip and fumble recovery by Kitchens gave the White team some hope with less than two minutes remaining. After the Black team was called for pass interference on the first play, Moore ripped off a 17-yard run down to the Black 13, and on the next play, Moore found Kitchens in the end zone for the winning touchdown with 28 seconds left.
