ALEXANDRIA — Todd Ginn dripped from celebratory dousings as he explained the gusty two-point conversion call that likely won Alexandria a first-round playoff game at home.
Imagine the chill Alexandria’s coach would’ve felt had J.J. Beason and the offensive line in front of him not made it work,
Beason’s touchdown run and conversion run gave Alexandria a one-point lead with one minute to play, forcing Cherokee County to play for the win instead of overtime. Beason’s interception return for a touchdown clinched Alexandria’s 36-28 victory in a key Class 4A, Region 6 game at Lou Scales Stadium.
