Henderson Lions Stadium, Friday, September 20, 2019 –
The Center Roughriders Varsity football team saw their record fall to 1-3 after their third straight loss on Friday. The ‘Riders only trailed 7-0 after the end of the first quarter but saw things get away as they trailed 35-7 at halftime, 56-7 at the end of three periods, and they eventually saw Henderson’s lead balloon to 63-7 by the end of the contest. This was Center’s third straight pre-district loss.
Both teams had turnovers in the opening frame which kept the game close in the early going. Henderson lead 14-0 early in the second but Center came back to answer and they pulled to within a touchdown of the Lions. Henderson would shutout Center for the rest of the contest and score the final 49 points scored.
The Roughriders will regroup as they will host Grace Community at Roughriders Stadium next Friday, September 27, 2019. Kickoff is at 7:30 p.m.
