Model makes history in dominant win
The Model High Blue Devils didn’t just win Friday — they made football history. The No. 9-ranked Model squad dominated the host Darlington Tigers in all three phases of the game, romping over the Tigers 54-21 at Chris Hunter Stadium. The victory not only gave the Blue Devils (7-1 overall, 3-1 in Region 6-AA) their most regular season wins in a decade, but it also snapped a 14-game losing streak to the Tigers that spanned almost three decades. The last time Model beat Darlington was in 1997, a 15-14 overtime win. And the last time the Blue Devils beat the Tigers on the road? The “Miami Vice” theme song was No. 1 on the charts — November of 1985.
