MARIA STEIN — The Bradford football team's historic season came to an end in the regional quarterfinals of the playoffs Friday night as the Railroaders lost 53-27 to the defending state champion Marion Local Flyers.

Marion Local jumped out to a 6-0 lead on its first drive of the game, but later in the first quarter Bradford tied the game on a 57-yard touchdown run. That was as close as Bradford would get as Marion Local took a 41-6 lead into halftime.

With Marion Local's junior varsity playing most of the second half, the Railroaders scored 21 points as the game ended with a 53-27 final score.
