Lions Drop Fifth Straight, 13-12
SAVANNAH. The Mars Hill Lions
continued their slide into oblivion
Saturday night against Savannah
State College. The Lions dropped
their fifth straight after winning
three in a 13-12 decision as the Mars
Hill offense again failed to put points
on the scoreboard.
With starting QB Sean Bowles look
ing on from the sidelines, senior Jim
Thomas was unable to get the Lion of
fensive machine roiling. The Lions
failed to convert several scoring op
portunities in the Savannah State
end, settling for field goals from
placekicker David Shealy when
touchdowns were badly needed.
Shealy connected on three field
goals in the first half to keep Man
Hill in the game. Mars Hill held the
lead briefly in the first half, but fell to
13-9 at the intermission when the
hosts scored on a 12-yard TD pass and
a 73-yard drive in the second quarter.
Kevin Barnette did all he could to
keep the Lion hopes alive. The Mars
Hill native blocked a Tiger extra
point attempt and later recovered a
fumble in Tiger territory to give Mars
Hill a final scoring opportunity.
The loss dropped Mars Hill to 3-5
after a 3-0 start. Savannah State im
proved to 2-5 with the victory.
