‘A swampy mess:’ Lions can’t scrape up a comeback in muddy 29-14 New Waverly loss
After a nearly scoreless first half, the Teague Lions saw a last-ditch comeback fall from their grasp in a slippery 29-14 road loss to New Waverly Friday night. Under gloomy skies and spotty rain showers, New Waverly’s real grass field quickly turned to sludge, setting a dramatic stage to start the game. Both teams slung nothing but mud for much of the first half until the home team scored with six minutes left on the clock, then secured a two-point conversion for an 8-0 lead.
