David Douglas Scots Football 12-13 McNary

McNary edged David Douglas 13-12 in a tight non-league football game Friday night in Portland, Oregon, leaving the Scots of the Mt. Hood Conference (6A) still searching for their first win of the young season. A one-point margin separated the two teams at the final whistle, a result that will sting for a David Douglas squad that played close enough to win but could not quite close the deal on their home field. Without a detailed box score available, the narrow scoreline tells the story well enough. Both offenses were held in check, and special teams or a late defensive stand likely proved decisive in the end. David Douglas falls to 0-2 on the season with the loss. The Scots will need to regroup quickly, assess what is working and what needs fixing, and bring renewed focus into their next contest. There is still plenty of football left to play, and close games like this one can serve as valuable learning moments for a developing program.
