In what many in attendance will tell you was the greatest high school football game they ever saw, the Whitewater Wildcats defeated Starr's Mill 15-14 with just over a minute remaining in the game.

Starr's Mill took a 14-0 lead into the half thanks to two touchdown runs from quarterback Robby Davis. Halfway through the third quarter the Wildcats got on the scoreboard when quarterback Jay Bright connected on a pass to Cody Haralson who ran 80 yards for the touchdown. Their final score, one sure to go down in the annals of the school's history, came on a halfback pass from Tavorsi Dixon to Bright on a critical fourth down with 1:12 left on the clock. Bright scored the two point conversion on a quarterback keeper.

This was the first varsity meeting between these two teams and a classic rivalry has already been formed. Be sure to read the Wednesday edition of The Citizen for final stats, scores from all other region games and a look ahead to next week's games.
