Plainview 26-Section 0

“The Defense, as a whole, stepped up.”

—Coach Dustin Goodwin

Plainview played host to Section Friday night, for their Homecoming.

The offense had a slow start but the defense showed up and was ready to play.  Sophomore, Zack Allen, showed out with a fumble recovery and two sacks. Coach Dustin Goodwin, “Zack Allen played extremely well. He is getting more and more snaps each week.  The Defense as a whole stepped up and played well until our offense could get on board.”

Late in the first half, Clay Cooper charged in with a 1-yard touchdown.  The PAT by Louis Hernandez was good, making the score 7-0 going into the half.

Will Kirk scored the second touchdown of the night with a 40-yard pass from Sophomore Quarterback, Bailey Dukes.

Ben Williamson got his share of the limelight with his interception in the fourth quarter.  This gave Sam Mueller the opportunity to run in 19-yard touchdown, making the score 20-0.

In the final minutes of the game, Clay Cooper, scored his second touchdown of the night with his 11-yard gallop into the endzone.  Final Plainview 26, Section 0. The Plainview Bears are now 2-3 for the season.

Plainview will host Pisgah for an important region game this week.  “Pisgah is a tough region game. We are focusing on improving and eliminating penalties” said Coach Goodwin.
