Lions Blow Past Eastside 49-20
The Daniel football team defeated Eastside 49-20 in wet, sloppy conditions Thursday night to advance to the second round of the upper state playoffs. The Lions got in front early behind Tyler Venables four rushing touchdowns in the first quarter and never looked back as the Daniel defense kept Eastside frustrated all night. Matthew Maloney and Bubba McAtee each had interceptions and David Cote blocked a punt that led to a Lion touchdown.
The team now will travel to South Pointe on Friday for the second round. South Pointe is located near Rock Hill and was the winner of their region. An exciting game between two powerful offenses is anticipated. Go Lions.
