Varsity: Biddeford Vs Sanford

The first quarter was overall uneventful with neither team scoring and no major defensive plays made.

Quarter two brought the first points for Biddeford of the game to the score board with the team’s #15 (QB Ernie Dore) handing the ball off to #2 (RB Kelly O’Guinn) who ran it home for a 62 yard touchdown. Biddeford's #6 (Achile Tcholuka) successfully kicked a field goal scoring an additional point.

During the third quarter, Biddeford's #4 (WR Julius Searles) made a 15 yard reception to get the first down. Following this pass completion, Dore threw a second successful pass to Searles who made an impressive catch leaping above two of the Sanford players scoring a touchdown.

The boys played hard through the fourth quarter but unfortunately did not score any additional points. As one parent put it, the "fourth quarter was rough… Biddeford's Defense left everything on the field and there were a lot of penalties called for both teams.”
