Final per the scoreboard.

Congratulations Perry Central. The Commodores proved me wrong tonight, they were a little under sized but left it all on the field to pitch a shutout.

This one surprised me a little. Congrats to Perry Central, nice way to open up a new stadium.

Congrats to Coach Haddix and his team.

 

Good luck next week against wha tlooks like a strong Corbin team.
