In what was in effect the 2S District 9 championship game the South Sumter Raiders asserted their will with a manhood testing drive in the 4th quarter to defeat the Dunnellon Tigers 13-12. This game was primarily a defensive battle with South Sumpter returning a pick six and Dunnellon a punt for a TD. The real difference in the game was the Raiders successfully kicked an extra point.
Dunnellon seemed to control the momentum during most of the game. To the delight of the Tigers fans they played with passion throughout. The final result was tough for them to take. The Raiders took advantage of most of their opportunities even though they lost the ball on a fumble deep into Dunnellon’s red zone.
It was a beautiful Florida autumn night to enjoy a high school football game between 2 small town rivals who fought it out until the end.
