GW Eagles Top Patrick Henry In Low-Scoring Victory
George Washington High School relied on a stifling defense to beat Patrick Henry Roanoke 15 to 0. The defense forced turnovers and limited PH, while GW’s offense relied on a single 29-yard field goal and a few big plays to secure the win. Quarterback Mark Snead struggled with completion, but coach Alger Pugh praised the defense and called for the offense to gain cohesion and hold onto the ball.
