Bombers Hand Withrow First Loss of the Season

Bombers Hand Withrow First Loss of the Season

Fresh off their own first loss of the season last weekend in Tennessee, Bomber Football returned to the state Ohio looking to get back into the win column.

The Bombers struck early and often, scoring two first quarter touchdowns. Spencer Stegbauer punched in a touchdown from one-yard out with 4:55 left in the first and then Jack McClatchey hauled in a 23-yard strike from Chase Herbstreith with 1:18 remaining to bring the Bomber lead to 14-0.

Withrow knocked in a field goal just before halftime to bring the score to 14-3 at intermission.

Withrow struck lightening when Kentucky-commit Terhyon Nichols returned the opening kickoff 96-yards for a touchdown, to make the score 14-10.

The second half would play out like a heavyweight battle as defense began to reign supreme. The fourth quarter alone featured just one possession apiece for the two teams.

On 3rd and 7 late in the 4th quarter, Bomber senior and Navy-commit Noah Beck broke through on a blitz to sack Withrow quarterback Luke Dunn for a loss of 7-yards. Withrow would punt, giving the ball back to St. Xavier with 6:00 minutes remaining in the game. The Bombers picked up a pair of first downs before Chase Herbstreit closed the door on the game with a 7-yard scamper on 4th and 1 with 2:03 remaining.

The Bombers move to 3-1 on the season as they look ahead to their first GCL matchup of the season - a trip to Welcome Stadium in Dayton to take on the Moeller Crusaders. The game will be Friday at 7:30 pm and tickets are available here!
