RAINSVILLE, Ala.-- The Plainview Bears Homecoming was a little sweeter as they scored their first win of the season over the Glencoe Yellow Jackets, 28-7 on Friday night. 

The Bears' first possession of the night resulted in a fumble.  Glencoe was forced to punt on both of their possessions in the first quarter.  Plainview ended the first quarter after a 13-play, 89-yard drive.

With 8:20 remaining in the first half, the Bears scored on a 33-yard run by Andrew Hall.  With 6.7 seconds remaining in the second quarter, Trey Rutledge connected with an 18-yard pass to  Dylan McCullough for the score.  The extra point attempt was good, to give the Bears the 14-0 advantage going into the half. 

The third quarter was a back and forth between the teams with neither time making it into the endzone. 

McCullough sailed into the endzone, on a 5-yard run off right tackle.  The PAT was good for Plainview to take the 21-0 lead, with 5:22 remaining in the game. McCullough scored his third touchdown of the night, with a 31-yard gallop into the endzone. The PAT was good to take the 28-0 lead with 4:08 remaining in the game.  Glencoe scored with 17.4 seconds remaining in the game, with a quarterback sneak from a yard out, to make the final 28-7.
