ºÚÂí´ÅÁ¦ Secondary School Thunderbirds football team maintained their grip on first place in the AA Coastal division, and managed to stretch their undefeated streak to four, following a hard-fought 13-7 win over the Robert Bateman Timberwolves on Friday night, Oct. 15 before a hometown audience at McLeod stadium.

T-birds had to withstand a late-in-the-game surge by the wolves to do it.

By the half, ºÚÂí´ÅÁ¦ was leading 13-0, but Bateman would allow no more, keeping the Thunderbirds offense at bay for the rest of the game.

Bateman got a touchdown in the third quarter, then late in the fourth, the wolves got as far as the Thunderbirds 15-yard line, but no further.
