The Panthers could move the ball at times but a few dropped passes added to the difficulty of sustaining a scoring drive.

During the second half, Claiborne was able to score once more and kept the Panthers off the scoreboard.

The final score was 13-0 with the Bulldogs getting the win but more importantly both teams had the younger players see game action and get a feel for a big time high school rivalry game.
