Edon defeats Jefferson, advances to regional quarterfinal against McComb
EDON — In the first round of a Division VII, Region 26 matchup at Leanne Field between the home Edon Bombers and the visiting Jefferson Wildcats, the former was the team to take a dominant 41-14 win at home. No. 6-seeded Edon improved to 10-1 overall with this postseason victory. The No. 11-seeded Jefferson Wildcats fell to 4-7 overall and saw their season end with the loss. In the first quarter, Edon established dominance early on against Jefferson. After forcing the visiting team to punt, the Bombers took advantage and scored from eight yards out from the likes of starting quarterback Jaron Grove. A good PAT kick tallied the score to 7-0 in favor of the Bombers. After having received the ball, Jefferson’s starting QB Heath Schnipke was sacked by a crowd of Edon players — leading to the home team taking control on offense once again. Edon was quick on offense and scored just a few minutes of game time later in the first from the likes of Grove again at the 4:39 mark. A successful PAT kick put the Bombers further on top at 14-0. Grove was a force to be reckoned with all evening for Jefferson according
