FOOTBALL WEEK ONE: Hawks, Raiders Storm To Victory....

The defending regional champions picked up quite nicely with life after Sam Rogers and Company....

The Hawks scored on their opening possession and never allowed a point, defeating Patrick Henry 22-0 in Ashland on opening night, Hanover's eight consecutive victory over the Patriots.

New quarterback Korbin Bordonie went 11-of-20 for 130 yards and 2 touchdowns, including a 9-yard strike to Brennan Gary.

Chesdin Harrington, subbing for the injured Tyler Phelps at quarterback for PH, completed his first seven passes, but didn't complete a pass in the second half. Phelps was out with a sprained ankle and is expected to return next week at Atlee.

Brooks Coombs was the star of the game, rushing 19 times for 134 yards and an insurance touchdown, the only score of the second half.

Meanwhile, the Atlee Raiders picked up right where they left off offensively, as a new cast emerged in a 70-14 rout of Deep Run. It was 49-7 by halftime.  The game was over almost before it started.

Now Patrick Henry must travel to face and find an answer for Atlee next Friday night.  That's our "Game of the Week" on WHAN, 102.9 FM, 1430 AM and here at HanoverCountySports.net.

In Stafford tonight, Lee-Davis' 4th quarter comeback effort fell a touchdown short as Mountain View held on for a 28-21 victory in the opener for the Confederates......
