A week after suffering both the first loss of the season and first region loss, the Fort Dale Eagles got back on track Friday with a 22-20 win at region foe Clarke Prep.

The Gators got on the board first with a five-yard touchdown run in the second quarter and, following the successful two-point conversion, Clarke Prep held an 8-0 lead.

To close out the first half, the Eagles answered the Gators' score with a nine-play, 69-yard drive that culminated with Ty Newton delivering a 20-yard pass to a diving Adam Vickery for the Fort Dale score on the last play of the half. Following the two-point run by Newton, the Eagles went into halftime tied at 8-8.

Mika Jones got into the scoring action in the third quarter with a one-yard run, but the two-point conversion was no good, giving the Eagles a 14-8 lead.

Clarke Prep answered the Eagles' score with a 24-yard touchdown run on fourth down to close out the third quarter. The Gators' two-point conversion also failed, tying the game at 14-14.

Jones once again got into the end zone halfway through the fourth quarter and after scoring the two-point conversion, the Eagles held a 22-14 lead.

The Gators added another score on an 18-yard run but after the two-point try failed, the Eagles had secured victory.

For the Eagle offense, Blake Mullins had 12 carries for 98 yards while quarterback Newton finished 10-of-15 for 133 yards. Vickey had two catches for 54 yards and one touchdown and Davis Watts had four catches for 51 yards.
