opportunities to score but could not get the ball in the end zone, losing 6-0. Great job Bears and good luck next week
against Willow Wood.
7th Grade Gold
Football: The 7th grade Gold A-Team
played a very good Bear Branch team and ended with a 19-19 tie. There were many highlights in the game. Jordan Hod threw a 50 yard touchdown to
Austin Pritchett and two touchdowns to Jake Prigmore. Hood also connected with Ryan Brock on an
extra point for the tie. With 30 seconds
left in the game, Brock Nickerson intercepted a pass to insure the tie. Great job!!! The 7th Grade Gold B-Team lost

but the offensive unit just could not get on track last night.
8th Grade Purple Football: The 8th
grade Purple teams traveled to Magnolia Junior High this week. The first half
of the Purple A-Team game was truly a battle, with the Bears trailing at the
half 7-0. The Bears fought hard the second half but could not overcome the
weather. The Bears lost 21-0. The 8th
grade Purple B-Team fought hard all night long. The Bears went into halftime
trailing Magnolia 12-13, and the battle would continue all night.
Unfortunately, the Bears came up short losing to Magnolia 12-26. Good Job Bears
from all the coaches. Please come out
and support your team as we face the Willow Wood on Tuesday, October 23rd in

8th Grade Gold Football: The 8th grade
Gold teams were at home Tuesday to take on the Bears from Bear Branch Jr.
High School. The Gold
Team A-Team game was a long, rainy game but it must have seemed even longer for
the Bear Branch offense as the Bears’ defense shut them down all night. Some
stand outs on defense were Nick Beazley, DylanWright, O'Brien Williams, Chad
Phillips, Waverly Hampton, Drew Smith and Tim Poldo. The Bears offense took
care of the ball all night and played hard until the very end but the game
would end in a tie 0-0. This game was a great game by your Bears as Bear Branch
had not lost a game all year. The Gold B-Team started the night off with a
bang. The Bears ran all over the defense all night long. Carson DeCoster and
Hunter Grimmett ran for over 200 yards for the night as the Bears beat Bear
Branch 18-0. Great job to both Gold teams from the coaches.

Page, Narissa Collier, and Brittany Oldner. Our defense was spot on from Grace
Bache and Addison Barron. Dani St. Pe and Brittany Gilliam contributed greatly
to the success of our offense. Lauren Endres and Sierra Travis played the net
well and let very little get past their block! Way to finish the season with a
win! Coach Reed is very proud of every
one of you! The 8th grade B-Team took the volleyball court last night hoping to finish the season with a victory. A victory is exactly what they fought for.
