Rosewood edges CBA 27-26 after failed two-point conversion
PIKEVILLE — With less than 30 seconds remaining in the Little River Rivalry, the Charles B. Aycock offense was up against a wall.
Down 27-20 to rival Rosewood — and facing a fourth and long some 30 yards away from the end zone — it appeared the Eagles had the game in hand.
CBA junior quarterback Ethan Brock had different plans.
The young man threw a strike, resulting in a touchdown that brought the home team within a point.
Unfortunately for the Golden Falcons, Brock’s heroics weren’t enough.
Moments later, a failed two-point conversion sealed the game for Rosewood.
The Eagles (1-0) will play its home opener against North Johnston Friday evening, while CBA (0-1) hosts Eastern Wayne.
