North Stokes stuns South Davidson 21-12 in 1A playoff opener
DENTON — North Stokes entered the NCHSAA 1A State Football Playoffs at 0-10. On Friday night, the Vikings left South Davidson with a first-round win. North Stokes beat Greater Triad 1A/2A Conference opponent South Davidson 21-12 and advanced to a second-round game at Robbinsville on Nov. 13. “I am so happy for our players,” North Stokes coach Kolt Bullington said. “We’ve lost several key players to injuries this season, and we only dressed 19 players last night. Being 0-10, they had every reason not to show up. But they played with the urgency and focus you must have to win in the playoffs.” The Vikings (1-10) had lost to the Wildcats (6-5) 28-22 during the regular season. In that game, North Stokes led 22-20 with about three minutes left but couldn’t get a first down and had to punt. South Davidson returned the punt 67 yards for the winning touchdown. This time, North Stokes controlled the game. The Vikings outgained South Davidson 372-209, had 19 first downs to nine and held the ball for 29:35 to the Wildcats’ 18:25. They converted 6 of 8 third downs. Quarterback Holden Shelton completed 28 of 36 passes for 283 yards and three touchdowns.
