Columbus Hardaway showed its poise to outlast a game Albany Westover squad for a 15-14 victory in a Georgia high school football matchup on October 13.

Each offense authored its Rip Van Winkle imitation, napping through barren first and second quarters.

The Patriots’ heartbreak could be traced to a disappointing final quarter, when they were outscored 15-7 by the Hawks.
