In a seesaw second half, the Clinton football team scored 19 unanswered points on its way to a 26-7 lead and nearly watched it vanish, on the rallying arm of Woodward’s sophomore quarterback Sam Cheap.
A 6-6, tie ballgame late in the second quarter, appeared destined to go into half that way for the Clinton eighth grade football team and the Cache Bulldogs.
