The Sullivan-Okaw Valley Redskins stormed into Cumberland last Friday looking to extend their winning streak to three. They knew it wasn’t going to be easy as the Pirates of Cumberland were looking to add to their undefeated record as well.
Containing two-way threat Cumberland Senior Blake McMechan was one of the main focus points in the Redskins’ preparation throughout the week. And McMechan proved why just 38 seconds into the game when he stole a pass from Senior wide receiver Kaden Guest. The Pirates couldn’t capitalize as a solid defensive stand from the Redskins forced a fumble, recovered by senior Hayden Moody.
