CONWAY — Quarterback Isaiah Reese ran for 215 yards and scored four touchdowns to lead Gilford-Belmont to a 28-19 victory over Kennett High at Gary Millen Stadium on Friday night in the season-opener in Division II football.

Reese’s third touchdown, a 62-yard scamper in the third quarter, proved to be the turning point in the game, but most on hand were surprised the score counted. Reese appeared to be down 20 yards into his run, or at the very least his momentum stopped, but the talented junior continued the play and went the final 40 yards untouched to put the Golden Eagles in front 20-19.
