The Lewis County High School Panthers took their undefeated show on the road Friday night, travelling to Region 5AA foe Summertown for a dance with the 3-1 Eagles. The Panthers and Eagles were both ranked in the AP Top 10 for AA, Lewis County #3 and Summertown #9, with the winner taking a position at the top of Region 5AA.
The powerful Panther offense broke the ice in the first quarter when Lincoln Brewer scored on a 3-yard run and carried the ball for the two-point conversion, giving the Panthers an 8-0 lead in the first quarter.
The Eagles found the equalizer in the form of an 87-yard fumble recovery and score by Javen Edmiston and the two-point conversion pass from Colton Shaffer to Edmiston to tie the game at 8 with eight minutes to play in the second quarter.
The Panthers answered in three minutes, when Kael Feichtinger was on the receiving end of a Blake Carroll touchdown pass, a 14-yarder, and Carroll added the PAT to give the Panthers a 15-8 lead going in at halftime. The Panthers marched down the field in the first two minutes of the second half and Ethan McCann ran in from the five for a touchdown, and Carroll again added the point to stretch the lead to 22-8.
Midway through the third quarter the Eagles struck back, as Colten Shaffer scored on an 11-yard run, but the PAT fell no good, and the Panthers lead was 22-14. On the following possession, Ethan McCann rumbled for a 32-yard touchdown run, his second of the game, and Carroll added another point to stake the Panthers to a 29-14 lead moving into the fourth quarter.
Early in the fourth, Lincoln Brewer found the endzone once more, this time from 6 yards out, and Carroll added another PAT to make the score 36-14. Minutes later, it would be Blake Carroll's turn with the ball in hand, as he sprinted in from the 12 and added the point after to give the Panthers a 42-14 lead.
As time was winding down late in the fourth, Summertown's Colton Shaffer found Javen Edmiston again from 17 yards out, and Austin Abbott added the PAT to make the score 42-21, which would be the final.
