November 6, 2009

By Denis Vass of Graham High School

  On a cold and windy night in Yanceyville, Sophomore quarterback Dominique Snipes and Sophomore running back Durell Newby teamed up for 3 scores as Graham won 20-0.

  With the win, the Red Devils wrap up 2nd place in the Mid-State 2-A Conference. Their only loss in conference play was to Reidsville 2 weeks ago.

  At the 10:13 mark in the 2nd quarter, Dominique Snipes scampered 38 yards for Graham's
1st touchdown.  Gexar Martinez pushed the PAT wide to the left, as Graham led 6-0.

   Snipes hooked up with Durell Newby with 2:02 remaining in the 2nd quarter on a 16 yard pass to put the Red Devils up 12-0.  Snipe's 2-point PAT pass was dropped in the endzone.

  Snipes and Newby once again linked up for a touchdown, with 3:08 remaining in the 3rd quarter.  This toss was a 3 yarder.  Jamaree Torain grabbed the 2-point PAT pass from Snipes, as the Red Devils built their lead to 20-0.

   Graham finishes play 7-3 overall, 5-1 in the conference.  Hats off to the JV's for an outstanding season!
