G.C. Marshall High – 0
Stone Bridge High – 63
The George C. Marshall High School Statesmen suffered a rough loss last Friday, Sept. 12 versus Stone Bridge High School – the same high school recently given the 23rd spot out of the top 100 high school football teams in the United States by the RivalsHigh 100. At halftime, the score sat at 49-0.
Post-game reports credit big scoring to the SB Bulldogs’ passing attack at 5 TD passes in the first half and yet another TD pass to start the second half. A running TD in the fourth closed out the scoring. Key plays on Marshall’s end came from Arther Kapplow, who racked up 17 rushes for 91 yards, a touchdown and a two-point conversion. Markus Foster also carried the ball 17 times, hitting for 66 yards and one touchdown. The Statesmen face off against Langley High School this Friday on Saxon turf.
