“That was a good win for us,” Marshman said. “We were worried that a lot of our momentum wasn’t with us coming into this game. There were a couple things that worried me going into the game. We had a bye week last week and then a long trip (to Chipley).

“We were playing a team on their senior night,” he said. “I thought we did a great job of that. Not everything was perfect. I thought our kids responded well through the night. We ran and threw the ball well, and this game allowed us a chance to refine a few things.”

NHS improves to 6-2 overall, and sits at No. 8 in Class 1A, and third in Region 1.

Next week, the Chiefs visit Jay.
