Football Recap: Northside Methodist Academy Knights vs. Emmanuel Christian Warriors
Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Northside Methodist Academy). They blew past the Emmanuel Christian Warriors 60-6 on Tuesday. The high-scoring effort was just what the Knights needed considering they were shutout in their previous match.
A big part of Northside Methodist Academy's victory came down to the chemistry between Sydney Freeman and her top target Anna Grace Bull. Freeman picked up 100 receiving yards and two touchdowns while Bull threw for 146 yards and three touchdowns on perfect 5-for-5 passing. Bull also hauled in two receiving touchdowns, which is notable because Northside Methodist Academy is 2-1 when she posts at least two receiving touchdowns, but 7-10 otherwise. Another player making a difference was Sydney Warren, who gained 46 total yards and two touchdowns.
Northside Methodist Academy didn't go easy on the quarterback and picked off two passes before the game was over. In fact, those interceptions all came courtesy of defensive juggernaut Alyssa Turner.
Northside Methodist Academy has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 9-11 record this season.
As of now, neither they nor Emmanuel Christian have any future games scheduled.
