Bentonville
Gold 34, Harrison 6
THE
GAME: Gold quarterback Canaan Ross completed only three passes, but they were
all touchdowns and broke open the game for the Tigers, as they rolled to a
victory over Harrison (1-6, 0-3) at Tiger Stadium.
Gold
(6-1, 2-1) got on the board with a 17-yard touchdown run by Destyn Adkins in
the first minute of the game, then Ross tossed touchdowns on three consecutive
offensive plays.
“(Ross)
has been very consistent all year,” Gold coach Toma Whorton said. “We’ve really
liked his leadership ability and he played a great game tonight.”
Ross
had a 7-yard touchdown pass to Hunter Garrigus in the first quarter, before
adding 36- and 63-yard touchdown passes to Hadley Gregg in the second quarter.
The
Goblins didn’t score until late in the third quarter, when Taner Edwards
connected with Brandon Schaefer for a 51-yard touchdown.
Harrison
beat Bentonville Lincoln 20-3 in the eighth-grade game.

NEXT: Bentonville Gold travels to Rogers Heritage next week, while Harrison
