The Redemption Tour continues for Bellefontaine as they beat the Granville Blue Aces Friday night 29-21. Granville knocked Bellefontaine out of the playoffs last year.
Tavien St. Clair was 13-22 for 223 yards and 2 TDs. Chris Fogan rushed 31 times for 201 yards and Riley Neer caught 11 passes for 202 yards and 2 TDs.
Bellefontaine trailed in the first quarter 15-14 before taking a 21-15 halftime lead.
Head Coach Jason Brown talks about the game:
The Chiefs added another score in the third quarter and added the 2-point conversion to go up 29-14.
Granville would score in the 4th quarter to pull within one score.
Bellefontaine seemed to be icing the game late in the 4th quarter when they fumbled going in for a touchdown and Granville recovered with a little under 2:00 left.
The Chiefs would turn away the Aces on downs and take a knee to run out the clock for the victory.
