Three miscues with the center-quarterback exchange proved to be near disaster for the Chester Cyclones, who escaped with a 27-21 home victory over Greer in the opening round of the Class AAA state playoffs.
The 88 players for this year's SCADA North-South All-Star Football Game were chosen on Monday, and the list includes six Herald-area players.
Chester High football coach Maurice Flowers didn't have to come in and do a lot of motivating as the new coach. Chester was coming off a state title run that fell short against Wilson, 14-12, in the finals.
This one came down to special teams. South Pointe blocked Chester's extra point kick with 4:29 to go in the second quarter to preserve a 7-6 win.
