Bombers earn fourth straight win
The cardiac magic carpet ride continued for head coach Shane Patrick and the Mountain Home Bombers with a 21-14 victory over the Sylvan Hills Bears in a AAAAA-East matchup Friday night at Sherwood.
Mountain Home’s win was the team’s fourth straight overall and the second consecutive in conference play. The Bomber victory (4-1, 2-0) was also the first win over Sylvan Hills in school history. In the six meetings prior to Friday night’s victory, Mountain Home was 0-6 versus the Bears.
The 4-1 start for Mountain Home is also the first time the school has been 4-1 since Barney Crawford’s Bombers accomplished the same feat in 1986. Sylvan Hills plummets to 1-4 and 0-2.
