Skyhawks set themselves apart from Dominion district
L.C. Bird didn’t feel the need to prove anything against Clover Hill’s big defensive lineman, Mo Gross. In fact, the team ran away from him. It proved to be a winning strategy as the Skyhawks sprinted to an early lead, then let their defense shut down the Cavaliers in a 27-3 romp. Now at 5-0 in district play, the Skyhawks both avoided a tie for first and, thanks to Manchester’s victory, put two games between themselves and the competition in the Dominion.
