Liberty’s Taylor Carson (No. 1) rushed for 170 yards but was contained to just 69 in the first half. Carson also scored the Minutemen’s opening touchdown against Jefferson Forest on Sept. 22.

Cavs topple Liberty in County Clash

By: Melanie Schumilas

The first half of the County Clash between Liberty and Jefferson Forest could be summed up in one word: strange.

The perplexing first half saw three kickoffs returned for touchdowns, three personal foul penalties and the Cavs blitzing to a 26-0 lead deep into the second quarter.

The Bedford County foes met Sept. 22 at Liberty’s field. While Liberty’s crowd was amped, there was little to cheer about as the Minutemen (2-2) struggled and fell behind 40-13 in the first half.
