Knights get big win on the road
Every Flagler Knight pitched in to make the team’s road game trip possible on Saturday, June 11, in Jacksonville, North Carolina, and it was well worth it.
The Knights blew out the home team 38-6 behind Torrance Brown’s five (four passing, one rushing) touchdowns.
“It was by far the best-coached game I've ever had,” said Charlie Washington, the Knight’s owner.
Brown connected with Willie fields on two TD passes, and he also hit Avery Harris and Romone Hollins for touchdown scores. Justin Edwards scored the other rushing touchdown. Tracee McCoy,
Keith Duhart, Marcus Mitchell and Harris each scored a two-point conversion.
