I went to a great football game last night. North Hall defeated White County, 13-10, in an exciting game! The turnovers by both teams kept fans (at least 2 of us) on their feet.
But the MOST exciting moments of the game were provided by Senior Kicker Jake Dunn. As stated in the Gainesville Times:
"With less than five minutes remaining, Christmas sent out kicker Jake Dunn, who nailed the 23-yard game-winner.
It was Dunn's second field goal of the game, as the senior kicked a 46-yarder as time expired in the first half to give North Hall a 10-3 lead."

The kicker's mother had a great game too.
I would also like to congratulate White County's kicker, Mark Bardenwarper, who kicked a 22-yard field goal. When I taught Mark in 2nd grade he played football and challenged others to run races at recess everyday. I remember Mark as always being a good athlete and a great sport even at that early age.
