Oak Ridge coach Dereck Rush needed one last stop.
Luckily for him, the War Eagles got it. Oak Ridge forced a turnover on downs as Kingwood was driving to try to take the lead on its final drive to preserve a 30-26 win over the Mustangs at Turner Stadium to begin District 16-6A play.
“This was a big win for us,” Rush said. “We started this year with a goal to win a district championship. We needed this win to keep that dream alive.”
