Riverside lost its home opener to Eastside 41-14. … Riverside turned the ball over eight times … it was the Warriors’ 11th straight loss going back to the second game of last year.
WHAT THEY’RE SAYING:
Riverside head coach Steve Euote: “We struggled, especially in the first quarter. The most important thing we tell our kids is to have possession of the ball at the end of the play. … As a coach I must put the kids in position to win.”
Greer head coach Will Young: “Seneca caught us a little off guard with three tight ends, four tight ends. We’re obviously not where we want to be. But we’ll be a good football team.”
