Osbourn (6-3, 2-1) got back on track Friday night as they defeated Stonewall Jackson High School (4-4, 1-2) 55-12.
The Eagles wasted no time getting on the scoreboard. After the Raiders fumbled the opening kickoff, Santoni Scott scored on a 10-yard scamper only 15 seconds into the game. This play set the tone for the rest of the game, as Osbourn scored on all six of their first half possessions.
“We just played really good ball,” Head Coach Steve Schultze said. “We got out of the gates early and never looked back.”

The win helped clear the playoff picture for Osbourn. With Battlefield defeating Broad Run on Friday, the three teams are now tied atop the Cedar Run District. Osbourn wraps up the regular season next Friday as the host Freedom-South Riding.
