BRIDGEWATER fell to Emory & Henry by a 34-21
score on Saturday afternoon at the Jopson Athletic Complex. The
loss to the Wasps was the first since 2008. After two scores early
in the first quarter, the game looked like it would become a track
meet with the game tied 7-7 after just six minutes of play. After
that, the Eagles struggled offensively as the Wasps rolled up 27
unanswered points to run away with a 13-point victory. Junior Ross
Rushing threw for 165 yards and a score to Logan Sullivan on
16-of-23 passing. Jacob Wright ran for 88 yards and
touchdown. Defensively, senior Darrick Gore led the way with
13 tackles and three breakups. Lucas Elliott and Daniel Brent
