Down at Victory Stadium last night, Botetourt locked horns with William Fleming in another Blue Ridge affair.
Fleming led 14-zip in the first quarter, and Taurus Boyd and the offense went to work again. Boyd fires this pass to Mijuan Curtis and check out Curtis with some nifty moves. He cuts across the field and down the sideline shaking off several tacklers all the way to the Botetourt five yard line. The Colonels would punch it in for 21 to nothing.
Lord Botetourt got some good field position after a muffed punt. Jeremy Mann can't escape the Colonels pressure. He gets stripped of the ball and Fleming recovers.
That didn't lead to points, but this did. It's that guy Mijuan Curtis again. He finds a hole and motors 72

yards to paydirt and Fleming rolls by a final of 42 to Nothing.
