Lewisburg falls to Central Columbia

Lewisburg (5-4) took a 21-14 lead when Nick Shedleski escaped from two pass rushers and found Jack Lands in in the back of the end zone for a 22-yard TD with 9:25 left in regulation.

That lead would stand until Zander Bradley scored on a receiver screen to tie the game with less than a minute left. 

Lewisburg got the ball to start overtime. On third down, Shedleski was sacked for an 8-yard loss, leaving the Green Dragons a 37-yard field goal attempt, which was missed. Central ran three straight running plays and got it to the 7-yard line to set up Yorty for the gamewinner, which split the uprights.

Lewisburg outgained Central 141-80 in the first half as the Green Dragons took a 14-0 lead on a pair of first half touchdowns. The first of those was a Shedleski two-yard run on their second possession, which came after Central muffed a punt, giving Lewisburg the ball on the Central 27.

Lewisburg took a 14-0 lead early in the second quarter when Shedleski found Ethan Spaulding for a 10-yard touchdown pass with 10:40
