H.S. Football Results from Friday night include close rivalry game wins for Branson and Harrison.

Branson 23 Ozark 21
The two schools have played one score games three out of the last four years and Friday's game was no different as the Pirates jumped out to a 20-6 halftime lead only to see the game end with a wild final six minutes. Leading by six, Branson pinned Ozark at their own 1-yard line only to have a blocked punt nullified by a penalty and a fumble recovery waved off after the runner was ruled down. The Tigers end up scoring with just over a minute to go to grab a one point lead. The Tigers return the favor however after having stopped the Pirates on a fourth down, committing a penalty that set up the game winning field goal by Freshman Dane Efrid with seven seconds left to grab the win. Efrid kicked three field goals and Senior Quarterback Tristian Pierce ran for two scores to led the Pirates, who go to 1-1 for the season.  

Harrison 28 Mountain Home 21
The Goblins hold on for the win in Mountain Home as a late touchdown drive that could have tied the game was stopped when a Bomber running back fumbled the ball at the 1-yard line with Harrison recovering. With the game tied at halftime, the Goblins came out and scored a touchdown in each the third and fourth quarter to build the lead to 14 and then held on for the win. Quarterback Logan Plumlee threw three touchdown passes to lead to the Goblins to their second straight win to begin the season.
