GREENSBORO, N.C. — Greensboro (2-4, 1-2) fell to Belhaven (3-3, 2-1) 19-10 on Saturday. Greensboro scored all 10 of its points in the first quarter and were held scoreless over the final three quarters.
Greensboro produced 198 passing yards and 102 rushing yards, while Belhaven had 136 yards on the ground and completed 13 of 17 passes for 146 yards.

Both defenses recorded five sacks, and Greensboro has recorded at least five sacks in two consecutive games. Greensboro also converted two fourth downs in Belhaven territory.
Cameron Turner's 36-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-5 with 26 seconds left helped Greensboro finish the first quarter ahead 10-0.
Jacob Cook opened the scoring with a 33-yard field goal, then added the PAT after Turner's touchdown. Greensboro converted both fourth-down attempts and held Belhaven without a first down in the quarter.
Greensboro was held scoreless in the second quarter, and Belhaven scored on touchdown passes of 30 and 14 yards to take a 12-10 lead. Greensboro's defense produced four sacks and
Kamauri Davis blocked an extra-point try, while
Sincere McIntyre added kickoff returns of 35 and 34 yards. Greensboro's late drive reached the Belhaven 23, but a holding penalty, a sack and an incomplete fourth-down pass led to a turnover on downs at the 29.
Belhaven's only score of the third quarter came after a Greensboro interception was returned to the Greensboro 6, and the touchdown plus PAT put Greensboro behind 19-10.
