Chapel Hill gets first football win this year, downs rival Carrboro
Updated on 06/10/2022
In a battle of two winless football teams looking to celebrate a victory for the first time this season, Chapel Hill won on the road, beating rival Carrboro 27-7 on Monday thanks to a strong performance by its defense and an effective red zone running game.
The victory, Chapel Hill’s third in a row against the Jaguars, comes after the Tigers were outscored 101-13 in their first two games against Riverside and South Granville.
But unlike those contests, coach Issac Marsh’s team didn’t find itself playing catch-up after the first quarter and ultimately took control right before halftime when senior fullback Jake Johnson found the end zone from two yards out on a dive play right up the middle to open up the scoring.
Determined to protect its lead, Chapel Hill scored just over two minutes into the second half on a two-yard run once again, this time by junior quarterback Alec Stough, to take a 13-point lead.
Despite allowing Carrboro to get back in the game on a 5-yard touchdown catch by freshman wide receiver Dorian Stone in the third quarter, the Chapel Hill defense was ultimately able to protect its lead, limiting the Jaguars to 127 total yards on 55 plays.
TURNING POINT
Just over four minutes after Carrboro scored to make it a one possession game, the Tigers marched down the field and went back up by 13 after Stough connected with senior wide receiver Caleb Colson for a 10-yard touchdown
