Blog LIVE Game Blog for Region 6B Finals: #6 Colonial Forge (9-3) at #5 Patriot (9-3)

Watching two games simultaneously with the Region 5D Finals featuring Briar Woods at Riverbend and this Region 6B Championship on the NFHS Network.

John Brown's Colonial Forge Eagles comes in as the No. 6 seed at 9-3 overall, visiting Sean Finnerty's Patriot Pioneers, the No. 5 seed and also at 9-3 overall.

Patriot ended a seven-game losing skid in its series to Battlefield by toppling the unbeaten Bobcats in the regional semis, while Forge got here by avenging regular season losses to both Stafford and North Stafford in the first two rounds of the playoffs.

Former King William Star Demond Claiborne

Current Wake Forest and former King William star Demond Claiborne had a 100 yard kickoff return against Miami today. As the starting RB, he's now just 19 yards short of 1000 yards rushing on the season. He's got 14 TDs total on the season, with one game to go. With his 4.3 speed and now being 5'10 200 lbs, he's got a very good chance of playing on Sundays. Couldn't happen to a better kid either.

However, Maury started the 2nd quarter with star defensive end Ari Watford on the sidelines with an injury. He was dominating in the 1st quarter with a sack and a tackle for loss. The momentum started to change after the Clemson commit left the game.

The next time Green Run got the football; they drove 66 yards on 12 plays to cut the Maury lead in half. Dezhawn Smith scored on an 18-yard run with 7:24 to go before halftime.

Maury extended the lead to 20-7 when Bond and Newkirk connected on a 2nd touchdown from 26-yards out with 6:31 to go in the 3rd.

The Stallons used a nice drive to start the 4th quarter and scored on a 1-yard run from UConn quarterback commit K'Saan Farrar. Green Run stopped Maury on downs and took over at their own 28-yard line with 3:07 remaining in the game. Farrrar completed a 15-yard pass to the 43-yard line but Maury junior Damon McDaniel Jr. caught a deflected pass to end the threat.
