In East Ridge’s football season opener at Polk County, Traneil Moore got just two carries, causing Pioneers coach Tracy Malone later to scratch his head and question his own sanity.

It’s been a different story since. Moore has become the Pioneers’ showpiece, and he put them on his shoulders and carried them to win No. 7 on Friday, 14-9 at Notre Dame.

He carried the ball 30 times for 217 yards behind an overpowering offensive line and in the second half lead blocker Lorenzo Stewart.

“He’s a war daddy, man. He’s a tough running back,” Malone said of Moore. “The thing that’s impressed us is his ball security. Traniel has gotten so much better, but that really stands out for us.”
