It may have only been half of a game, but Monday’s freshman game at Nunley Stadium will count as a full win for the Pioneers.Warren County led 16-7 at halftime over Moore County when the decision was made to stop the game and allow the Raiders ample time to return home before Monday’s storms reached Lynchburg. The result was considered a final and improved the Pioneers to 3-3 overall this season.Coach David Upton was happy to take another victory, however it came. “I think we played really well considering we’ve been off for three weeks,” said Upton.
