Leeds QB Conner Nelson finishes with 234 all-purpose yards in victory.
Leeds' Conner Nelson warms up before a jamboree football game against Helena in Leeds, Ala., Thursday, Aug. 17, 2023. A pair of defensive touchdowns and one long drive were enough to propel the Leeds Green Wave past Pell City on Friday night.
Leeds head coach called the week of practice following a loss to Mortimer Jordan “bloody” specifically for his defense.The Green Wave turned things around late in the third. First, the defense held Pell City’s offense on downs inside its own 20-yard line. Junior quarterback Conner Nelson then led an 83-yard drive, capping it with a 5-yard touchdown run that gave the visitors the lead for good.“This means a lot, because people were doubting us this week,” he said.
“We took it very personal, since last week we took an L,” Lee said. “Just came out just ready, eager to win. Ready to fight.” “Our team had a chance to win the game,” said Pell City head coach Rush Propst. “We don’t turn the ball over, we probably win the game.”
