Eagles fly past Buffaloes 13-7

STANTON – Lubbock Roosevelt stole a victory from Stanton last week after the Buffaloes took a slim 13-7 lead and had all the momentum. Unfortunately, the Buffs could not capitalize on several Eagle mistakes and allowed Roosevelt a 29-13 district win.

Stanton’s offense was none existent in the first quarter with the Buffs running six offensive plays and being forced to punt twice.
