Kenston Forest School’s varsity football team struck early on offense Friday evening but ultimately fell 28-15 to the visiting Northern Virginia Homeschool Athletic Association Centurions.

Kavaliers Head Coach Tom Inge said he was pleased with his young team’s performance.

“Some of our best players are ninth- and 10th-graders, and they are improving by leaps and bounds,” he said. “So, I’m very happy. It’s a game that it was fourth-and-goal on the one-yard line for us to tie the ballgame the last couple minutes of the game, and we just couldn’t get it across. So the game went down to the final two minutes.”

The Centurions got the ball and ran for a touchdown to make it a 13-point game.

“To me, I thought we dominated the line of scrimmage and probably, in my opinion, maybe outplayed them,” Inge said, “but they did have a couple long passes, and that was the game.”

Kenston Forest’s Moe Moe Morrison went 13-for-19 passing for 162 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

Ja’Von Carter had 18 carries for 88 yards and six catches for 56 yards and a touchdown.

Jah’Tavious Houston had seven catches for 82 yards and 12 carries for 41 yards and a score.
