Branson brothers pair up on T-Birds' winning TD in OT

North Callaway picks up first victory

Cole Branson will probably have selective recall about this one.

North Callaway's junior quarterback endured a brutal second half against Tipton in the Thunderbirds' home opener Friday night, throwing four interceptions inside the Cardinals' 10-yard line - including a pair that were picked in the end zone.

Somehow, North Callaway was able to erase a 13-point deficit - energized by senior Anthony Moses' kickoff return for a touchdown near the end of the third quarter - and pushed the game into overtime.
