Bowles also connected on key passes with wide receiver Dale “Gar field” Similton. Mars Hill took a 3-0 lead into the locker room at halftiine as freshman placekicker David Shealy provided a 32-yard field goal with five seconds re maining in the half. Mars Hill made key mistakes as the offensive line provided little if any protection for quarterback Bowles. An interception on the one yard line by Gardner-Webb ended a drive that began with Todd Reeves’ fumble recov ery, and a well executed fake punt play that gave MHC a new life with a fresh series of downs. Gardner-Webb came out fired up for the second half. The Bulldogs intercept ed a pass and repeatedly penetrated the Lion backfield, resulting in the sack of the MHC quarterback, Bowles. The Lions defense came alive with a quarter back sack of its own, as well as, Tony Campagna’s interception early in the quarter. Gardner-Webb scored 3 of its six points on a field goal by placekicker Tony Wells. The fourth quarter saw Mars Hill and Gardner-Webb in a defensive deadlock. Mars Hill fumbled early on, but later in tercepted a Gardner Webb pass to regain possession. Gardner-Webb went on top to stay with 2:14 remaining, when the Bulldog placekicker split the upright for his final attempt of the game.
