Lovejoy vs Alpharetta Football

Friday, September 13, 2013

The Lovejoy Wildcats faced off against the Alpharetta Raiders for this installment of Friday Night Lights. Alpharetta struck the first blow putting up seven points in the first minute and a half in the game. Lovejoy recovered scoring 24 points in the rest of the first half. It looked as if the Raiders were struggling as they only put up a field goal going into halftime trailing 24-10. The second half was quite different. Lovejoy held their 24 points but Alpharetta started chipping away at their lead. The Raiders closed the gap to a touchdown and with under a minute left put up their final six points. In a gutsy move to try and keep from going into overtime, Alpharetta attempted a two point conversion but the Lovejoy defense stopped the play and with the remaining 27 seconds and a failed onside kickoff Lovejoy defeated Alpharetta 24-23.
