Riversprings Bears Lose to Rival Wakulla Middle Wildcats to Finish Out 2007 Season

Thursday, November 1, 2007, the Riversprings Bears season ended with a loss to in county rival Wakulla Middle School.  The loss ended the Bears two year reign as County champions.  The Bears were led offensively by running back Demetrius Lindsey, who rushed 12 times for 81 yards, and Dalton Norman, who completed a 23-yard touchdown pass to Mikal Cromartie.  “All credit to WMS, they had a good team, and played a heck of a ballgame.  The kids that were on last year’s WMS team (like Kevin James) came out this year and really wanted it,” RMS Coach Joe Jacobs said.

Ivery Guyton, who had 7 tackles and 1 assist, led the Bears defensively.  Brandon Morgan, Luke Taylor, Demetrius Lindsey, and Dillon Norman all had at least 4 tackles each on the night.

The Bears will get back to the drawing board and look to improve on this year’s 6-2 season next year.  Coach Jacobs added, “We lose a lot of good players, but with Demetrius Lindsey, Dillon Norman, Dalton Norman, and Mikal Cromartie returning as our nucleus, we should be pretty good next year.”
