Senior linebacker Scottie Littles’ (Norfolk, Va./Landstown) 35-yard interception return with two and change to play proved to be the difference as the Bridgewater Eagles football team held off a late Shenandoah rally to be victorious by a 38-31 score over the Hornets in the Eagles home opener at Jopson Field.
Both teams traded touchdowns early, but it was the Eagles that struck first with a 33-yard strike from quarterback Hagan Driskell (Ruther Glen, Va./Caroline) to Tyler Beiler (Ronks, Pa./Conestoga Valley) to put Bridgewater ahead 7-0 early in the opening frame.
Baltimore scored five runs in the ninth, with the winning run coming on a bases-loaded single from Pete Alonso, in a stunning 6-5 win over Toronto on Saturday.
Virginia, which obviously wasn’t prepared to play Jacksonville State on Friday, was prepared, with the season on the line, for #8 national seed Southern Miss on Saturday.
