And Then There Were 4 . . .

Buffalo Fans young and old were plenty tonight as they braved the brisk(aka COLD) November football weather. The Meade Buffaloes took to the field against the Ellis Railroaders! The Buffaloes came out ready to play and made some great plays. Meade found the endzone first and added the 2 point conversion to put them up 8-0 early in the game! After several series of possession changes, Meade finally found the endzone one more time before the half making the score 14-0. As the wind picked up in the second half, Meade's intensity did as well. Another trip to the endzone found Meade up 20-0 and the Railroader's got another chance. Ellis finally found the endzone and with a successful two point conversion the score was 20-8. Meade managed to run time off the clock and found themselves victorious once again with the final score of 20-8.

This gives the Buffaloes the 2008 2A Sectional Championship. The Buffaloes have not made it this far in football playoffs since 1980 when they were State Champions. Meade will play host to the Smith Center Redmen on Friday, November 21st. Kick off is at 6:00 p.m.

Bundle up in your favorite purple attire and bring your spirit! You don't want to miss this game!
