PORTLAND — The
Union and Confederate
soldiers came face to face
on Sunday to reenact the
only battle of the Civil
War to be fought on Ohio
soil.
In July 1863, Gen.
John Hunt Morgan led
Confederate troops
through Ohio as part of
what became known as
Morgan’s Raid, with the
key battle taking place at
Bufﬁngton Island in eastern Meigs County near
Portland.
In that battle, an estimated 1,800 Confederate
soldiers and 3,000 Union
soldiers battled where

Morgan had planned
to cross the Ohio River
back into West Virginia.
The battled ended with
Morgan turning back
into Ohio, being captured
days later near East Liverpool.
The reenactment took
place on Friday with
the invasion of Chester,
followed by two days of
reenactment at Bufﬁngton Island. In addition to
the reenactments, speakers were held each day
to provide perspectives
of the events of the time
surrounding the battle.
Civil War dances were
also held, along with a
memorial service.
According to previous
Union soldiers carry the flag at the conclusion of the Battle of Buffington Island reenactment

Dog shelter
report
reviewed
By Sarah Hawley
shawley@civitasmedia.com

POMEROY — The
Meigs County Canine
Rescue and Adoption
Center is in compliance
with state law and doing
a good job, according to
a report from an independent investigator.
Following rumors and
concerns brought before
the Meigs County Commissioners last month
regarding the Meigs
County Canine Rescue
and Adoption Center, the
commissioners hired an
independent investigator
to examine the policies
and procedures of the
center.
The commissioners
addressed the report from
the investigator during
Thursday’s meeting.
Commission President
Tim Ihle stated there
were no faults found and
there were some recommendations made. The
recommendations are
expected to be implemented as part of continued improvement at the
new center.
“It is good to know that
it is a good shelter and in
compliance with the law,”
Commissioner Randy
Smith said.
The investigation compared the Meigs County
shelter to those in Jackson and Gallia counties as
far as intake procedures,
number of dogs in an out
and euthanizations.
According to the
report, which was provided to the Sentinel, Meigs
County is the only one of
the three reviewed which
has an open drop-off
policy, meaning the person bringing in the dog
does not have to reside in
Meigs County.
Through Aug. 1, a total
of 542 dogs had been
brought into the shelter
with 141 adopted, 53

Overcoming Your Credit Card Crisis
The battle with credit card debt can
be a constant struggle against high
interest rates and monthly payments
that never seem to make a dent in
what you owe. How is it possible to
make monthly credit card payments
and never get anywhere?
This problem is caused by high
interest rates that eats up most of
your payments. Even though you
make your minimum payment,
you don’t make much headway
eliminating the debt.
Luckily, there’s a way to find debt
relief without incurring more
debts. Using certified credit
counseling like Consolidated
Credit, you can get professional

advice to identify the right solution for your needs.
A certified credit counselor
can review your options to
see which solution is best for
you. You can qualify for lower
interest rates or even eliminate
them, while consolidating your
credit card debt into one easy
payment to get you out of debt
faster. Every financial institution differs, but most people see
a reduction of total payments
by up to 30-50% as they pay off
debt faster.

Freedom from debt can
become a reality!

and 270 sent to rescue.
A total of 44 (8 percent)
were euthanized. That
number is up slightly
from 2015 when six
percent, 59 dogs, either
died or were euthanized.
“The rate which is substantially higher than the
aforementioned counties
may be explained by the
fact that the shelter is
‘open to all’ and owners
are taking dogs there
from jurisdictions who
have not accepted the
canine or do not have
a shelter,” the report
states. The investigator
went on to state that
the dog warden, Coleen
Murphy Smith, had
indicated that she would
likely see the dogs in
the shelter regardless of
the open door policy as
some from Mason County or other locations may
dump the dogs in Meigs
County.
“In light of the euthanization numbers for the
last year and a half, it
becomes clear that the
rescue numbers must
increase,” the report
states.
The investigator
recommended that the
warden and her assistant
recruit a volunteer rescue coordinator whose
job would be to network
with groups to ﬁnd
homes for canines.
Additionally, a support base is needed in
the community. The
investigator speciﬁcally
noted the Athens County

organization, which

“It is good to know

works in the community with fundraising
events to support the
shelter. Also, special
adoption events are
held in the community.
A foster program
should also be implemented, the report
states, allowing for
canines to be placed
with foster homes
should the shelter be
full.
The investigator
recommended that the
warden meet quarterly
with other dog wardens
to discuss ideas or concerns.
Finally, the report
states, the commissioners, warden and staff
must realize the importance of the community
and its support.
“The Meigs County
K-9 Rescue and Adoption Center does and
admirable job, but with
these recommendations
will be the most successful rescue center
in southern Ohio,” the
investigator concludes.
As to the overall
assessment of the center and warden, the
report states, “It is the
opinion of this writer
that the Meigs County
Warden, Coleen Murphy Smith, does a good
job, is dedicated and is
open to suggestions to
improve the shelter.”

Evans joined dozens

Research Partners, a nonproﬁt research group in
Columbus.
But those ﬁgures can
cloak deep disparities
drawn along lines of
geography and race, said
Lynnette Cook, executive
director of the nonproﬁt.
In central Ohio’s Franklin County, for example,
black infants are more
than twice as likely to die
before their ﬁrst birthday
as white infants. The
city’s school district houses one of Ohio’s best public elementary schools in
a wealthier corner of the
city, but closer to where
King was shot, it also
houses one of the worst.
“It’s almost like folks in
different neighborhoods
are having completely
different life experiences
based on the ZIP code
they live in,” Cook said.
In poor neighborhoods,
often with higher concentrations of black residents,
some say there’s also a
difference in how they’re
treated by police.
“In Columbus, with
our police department,
we don’t believe that the
protection is extended as
much in black and brown
communities as much as it
is elsewhere,” said Evans,
the organizer who spoke
at King’s vigil. “We don’t
feel that safety is on the
side of black and brown
residents.”
The Rev. Vincent
Golden, Sr., whose Baptist
church is on the city’s east
side, said his community
is tired of hearing that
Columbus is safe.
“I’ll be honest, there are
times when I walk out of
my church, I am afraid,”
Golden said, adding that
there are more than 60
abandoned houses within
a four-block radius of

his church. “To me, that
brings no pride to the
community.”
Even before King’s
death, tensions had been
mounting over the city’s
policing. In June, two
plainclothes Columbus
ofﬁcers opened ﬁre on
23-year-old Henry Green,
who was black, after they
said he ignored commands to drop his gun
and ﬁred on them. Green
was shot seven times,
with a chest wound causing his death.
Green’s family and a
friend with him say police
didn’t identify themselves.
The ofﬁcers say they did.
The shooting has caused
consternation in the community, but no violent
protests.
In a poor neighborhood
on the city’s west side,
Lisa Boggs describes a
friendlier rapport with
police. Involved with the
neighborhood block watch
for nearly 20 years, she
said police have helped
curb crime and combat
drugs in the area.
“Although no city is
a safe city right now in
these times we live in, I
feel like our leaders and
police ofﬁcers are working
to make it safer,” she said.
Back at King’s vigil,
Marvin Johnson said it’s
time for Columbus police
to review their policies
on when it’s appropriate
to use force. But Johnson,
who owns a company
that transports cadavers,
also encouraged parents
to play a stronger role in
their children’s lives.
“If you do not stand
up and hold accountable
our young people and the
city, every single day, then
I will continue to drive
them — heartbroken —
to the funeral home.”

NEWS FROM AROUND THE BUCKEYE STATE

Sheriff: Suspect in slayings
confessed to other killing
ASHLAND, Ohio (AP) — A sheriff in Ohio says a
man charged last week with killing two women and
kidnapping another also has confessed to killing a
woman about 10 years ago.
The sheriff in Marion County said Monday that
40-year-old Shawn Grate told investigators he killed
a woman selling magazines sometime between 2003
and 2005.
The sheriff says the body of the unidentiﬁed
woman was found in 2007 near Marion. That’s about
50 miles (80 kilometers) southeast of Ashland, where
Grate was arrested last week after a woman called
911 and said she was being held inside a home.
Police then found the remains of two other women.
Authorities say Grate later led them to a third body
in Richland County.
Grate on Monday appeared in a video bond hearing. His attorney entered not-guilty pleas.

Ohio woman gets 18 years to
life in son’s fatal beating
HAMILTON, Ohio (AP) — A woman who pleaded
guilty in the fatal beating of her 5-year-old son at an
Ohio motel has been sentenced to 18 years to life in
prison.
A Butler County judge on Monday sentenced
26-year-old Theresa Hawkins-Stephens, who was one
of three women charged after the April beating. She
had pleaded guilty to charges of murder and child
endangering. A message left for her attorney Monday
wasn’t immediately returned.
Alexander Stephens died from his injuries after
police found him and his injured 6-year-old brother in
Middletown.
Police say Hawkins-Stephens and Rachel Bostian
tied Alexander up for nearly a day and severely beat
him. Bostian was sentenced earlier to 18 years to life
after pleading guilty to murder and child endangering.

Police: Officer fatally shoots
man who pulled assault rifle
AKRON, Ohio (AP) — Police say an ofﬁcer fatally
shot a man in Ohio after he pulled an assault riﬂe
from his car.
Police say ofﬁcers had been responding to an apartment complex Sunday afternoon in Akron after a
caller said his 61-year-old neighbor had slammed the
caller’s arm in a car door during an argument.
Police say the man reached for an assault riﬂe as
the ofﬁcers approached him in a parking lot behind
the building. They say one ofﬁcer shot several times
and hit the man when he ignored orders to stop.
The man was declared dead at a hospital. He isn’t
being publicly identiﬁed until his family can be notiﬁed.
The ofﬁcer, who wasn’t immediately identiﬁed, has
been placed on paid administrative leave.
The shooting remains under investigation.

CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, Ohio (AP) — The
creator of a naked Donald Trump statue that was displayed near Cleveland plans to auction it to beneﬁt

The statue of the Republican presidential nominee

month before police took it. The police chief has said
the city code prohibits placing items and equipment
on public property.
Cleveland.com reports artist Joshua “Ginger” Monroe ﬂew from Las Vegas to pay the impound fee and

Life-size naked Trump statues also made appearances in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles and
Seattle. They were the brainchild of an activist collective called INDECLINE, which has spoken out
against the GOP candidate.

Eagles ‘Jett’ past
Lancers, 37-0
By Paul Boggs
pboggs@civitasmedia.com

STEWART, Ohio — Simply put,
the Eastern Eagles relied on a “Jett”
to soar past the Federal Hocking
Lancers on Saturday night.
That’s because Jett Facemyer —
the Eastern standout senior quarterback — amassed 265 yards of total
offense and four touchdowns, pacing
the visiting Eagles to a 37-0 TriValley Conference Hocking Division
shutout.
Of those 37 points, Facemyer was
responsible for 22, including all four
of his extra-point kicks.
Facemyer ﬁnished with 133 rushing yards and a hat trick of scores on
15 carries, while completing 10-of-16
passes for 132 yards and another
TD.
In short, he was a one-man wrecking crew for an Eastern club that
outgained winless Federal Hocking
(0-4, 0-3 in TVC-Hocking) by 390
total yards (437-47).
“He’s (Facemyer) a great kid, a
great football player,” Eastern coach
Pat Newland told The Athens Messenger. “He makes good decisions.

Akron halts Thundering Herd, 65-38
By Alex Hawley
ahawley@civitasmedia.com

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. —
One bad quarter can ruin a
whole game.
The Marshall University
football team led 21-7 after
one quarter of play on Saturday afternoon at Joan
C. Edwards Stadium, but
non-conference guest Akron
outscored the Thundering
Herd 34-0 in the second
quarter, and the Zips rolled
to a 65-38 victory.
The Zips (2-1) scored on
the game’s opening drive, as
Thomas Woodson connected
with Mykel Traylor-Bennett
for an eight-yard touchdown
pass, capping off the 5-play,
80-yard drive.
The Thundering Herd
(1-1) — who went threeand-out on their ﬁrst drive
— forced an Akron fumble
to regain possession at the
MU 25. On the ninth play of
the Marshall drive, sophomore Chase Litton found
Michael Clark for a threeyard touchdown pass, tying
the game at seven.
Litton threw two more
touchdowns in the opening
quarter, ﬁrst ﬁnding DeonTay McManus from 18 yards
out and then ﬁnding Josh
Knight from the UA 21-yard
line.
Marshall’s defense forced
three straight punts, and
the Herd started their ﬁrst
second quarter drive at their
own 34. On the fourth play
of the drive, Litton was
sacked by Deon’Tay Moore
and fumbled the ball away.
Akron’s Daumantas Venckus
scooped the ball and ran 35
yards for the touchdown.
A would-be fourth down
conversion on Marshall’s

next drive was called back
for an illegal formation penalty — one of 17 penalties
MU committed on the day
— and the Herd were forced
to punt.
Akron drove 63 yards in
seven plays for the gametying touchdown, and the
series was capped off by a
35-yard pass from Woodson
to JoJo Natson.
Marshall punted again on
its next possession, but this
time the kick was blocked
by Zach Guiser. Ulysees
Gilbert III picked up the ball
for Akron and ran 30 yards
for the go-ahead touchdown.
However, the point after
kick was missed — Tom
O’Leary’s only miss of the
day in nine PAT chances —
and Akron led 27-21.
Marshall began moving
the ball on its next possession, covering 35 yards in
ﬁve plays. However, on the
sixth play of the drive, a
tipped pass was intercepted,
giving the Zips possession at
their own 36.
The guests needed just
two plays to cover the
distance needed, with a
34-yard pass from Woodson
to Austin Wolf, followed by
a 30-yard scoring pass from
Woodson to Kwadarrius
Smith. The Zips, who trailed
by 14 at the start of the second quarter, now led 34-21
with 5:02 left in the half.
Akron wasn’t done in the
second quarter, however, as
an interception set the Zips
up at the MU 11, with 1:26
remaining in the period. On
the third play of the drive,
Akron’s Tra’Von Chapman
ran into the endzone from
one-yard out, making the
Zips’ lead 41-21 at halftime.
Out of the half, MU put

an 8-yard Keion Davis run.
However, Akron answered
with a seven-play, 75-yard
scoring drive, which was
capped off by a 27-yard
touchdown pass from Woodson to Wolf.
Marshall drove 48 yards
on 10 plays in its next drive,
but was forced to settle
for a 29-yard ﬁeld goal by
Amoreto Curraj, who was
5-for-5 on point after kicks in
the setback.
Akron’s next drive went
75 yards in nine plays and
resulted in a three-yard
touchdown run by Woodson,
which came with 14:00 left
in the game.

The ﬁnal score of the
game came with 2:45

Lloyd intercepted a Litton
pass and returned it 31
yards for the touchdown.
“It’s obvious we did not

GLOUSTER, Ohio — Feeling right at home on the road.

Buckeyes blast Oklahoma, 45-24
By Jim Naveau
jnaveau@civitasmedia.com

NORMAN, Okla. –
The storm after the
storm was quite impressive, too.
No. 3 Ohio State
rolled to a 45-24 win
over No. 14 Oklahoma
on Saturday night in a
match-up of traditional
college football powers
that most people expected to be much closer.
The game’s kick-off
was delayed for 90
minutes by a storm
that brought ominous
clouds, lightning, strong
winds and heavy rain.
Ohio State (3-0) led
from wire to wire and
appeared to a statement
that it can be a player in
the national championship race even with an
inexperienced team that
has only six returning
starters.
For Oklahoma (1-2)
it was almost certainly
the end of its hopes of
getting into the College
Football Playoff after
losses to Houston and
the Buckeyes in their
ﬁrst three games.
Quarterback J.T. Barrett completed 14 of
20 passes for 152 yards
and four touchdowns
to lead an OSU offense
that rolled up 443 yards
of offense. Mike Weber
rushed for 123 yards on
18 carries and Curtis
Samuel ran for 98 yards
on 11 carries.

But the offensive
standout was receiver
Noah Brown, who
caught four touchdown
passes and showed what
Ohio State missed a
year ago when a broken
leg kept him out for the
entire season.
Brown’s scores came
on catches of 37 yards,
21 yards and 4 yards
in the ﬁrst half and an
8-yarder on Ohio State’s
ﬁrst series of the second
half.
“We controlled the
line of scrimmage and
when you do that you
have a good chance of
winning the game,”
Ohio State coach Urban
Meyer said. “This is the
coming of age game.
As of today, they (Ohio
State’s young players)
are no longer inexperienced. They’ve gone to
Oklahoma and won. It’s
probably one of the top
ﬁve toughest places to
play.”
Meyer also saluted his
six returning starters.
“The maturity of my
old guys is outstanding.
There are really good
leaders on our team
right now,” he said.
Oklahoma coach Bob
Stoops said, “We just
need to play better in a
lot of areas. I thought
we got beat in all phases
of the game.”
Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayﬁeld,
whose back-up quarterback Austin Kendall

said would light up
Ohio State’s defense,
achieved ignition only
sporadically. He completed 17 of 36 passes
for 226 yards, two
touchdowns and two
interceptions.
Ohio State scored on
four of its six ﬁrst-half
possessions and got a
defensive when linebacker Jerome Baker
returned a tipped pass
for a 68-yard touchdown
pass.
OSU’s ﬁrst touchdown
came on a 36-yard run
by Samuel with 7:28 left
in the ﬁrst quarter to
put the Buckeyes up 7-0.
The lead grew to 14-0
on Baker’s interception
three minutes later. It
was the fourth defensive
score in three game for
Ohio State.
Oklahoma cut the
lead to 14-7 on a
97-yard kickoff return
by Joe Mixon after
that TD. But Ohio
State answered with an
11-play, 89-yard drive
that ended with a 4-yard
touchdown pass from
Barrett to Brown for a
21-7 lead.
It was one of three
touchdown throws to
Brown in the ﬁrst half,
including a spectacular
grab in the ﬁnal minute
of the ﬁrst half.
Oklahoma cut the lead
to 21-10 on a 26-yard
ﬁeld goal by Austin
Seibert, who had missed
a 27-yarder on the Soon-

ers’ ﬁrst possession of
the game.
Ohio State came back
with another 37-yard
touchdown connection
between Barrett and
Brown that produced
a 28-10 OSU lead with
6:02 left in the ﬁrst half.
Oklahoma made it a
28-17 game on a 35-yard
touchdown pass from
Mayﬁeld to A.D. Miller
four minutes before
halftime. It was the
ﬁrst touchdown scored
by an opposing offense
against OSU this season.
But Ohio State drove
75 yards on 10 plays
without a timeout to go
up 35-17 six seconds
before halftime on a
21-yard touchdown pass
from Barrett to Brown,
who reached both hands
around a defensive back
to secure the ball and
get down in bounds.
Ohio State had 278
yards total offense in
the ﬁrst half and Oklahoma had 258. Barrett
was 10 of 14 for 120
yards. Mayﬁeld was 9
of 17 for 158 yards and
a touchdown, but was
intercepted twice –
once by Baker and once
by Marshon Lattimore.
OSU went up 42-17
on its ﬁrst possession
of the second half on an
8-yard touchdown pass
from Barrett to Brown
and added a 31-yard
ﬁeld goal by Tyler
Durbin.

Porcupines a prickly proposition
One of the many animals extirpated from
the Buckeye State in the
1800s and early 1900s
was the porcupine, and
it is one animal that you
aren’t likely to run into
around here anytime
soon.
Porcupines are usually associated with the
northern woods, and
for the most part you
need to go to Michigan
or New York to see one.
However, I have seen
some plausible trail
camera photos that show
what appears to be a
porcupine, so perhaps
they may be beginning
to make an appearance.
By plausible trail camera
photos, I mean ones that
actually look like they
could have been taken
around here, showing
terrain, vegetation and
trees that are commonly
found in this region.
Also there have been
veriﬁed porcupine sightings and photographs
from northern Ohio, so
there is really no reason
to believe that they cannot, or have not, begun
to stage a return to
these parts. For the time
being, they remain listed
as extirpated.
The porcupine is the
second largest rodent

which uses a stylized
red, white and blue
porcupine in much the
same manner as the
Democratic Donkey or
Republican Elephant,
occasionally with the
words “Don’t tread on
me,” or “Don’t tread on
anybody.”
My only experience
with porcupines was in
1990 at Fort Drum, NY
when I was attending
annual training with my
Army Reserve unit.
We had seen a porcupine around the area,
and then later that night,
secured in my sleeping
bag, I heard it snufﬂing
and shufﬂing around
nearby, and then later it
actually climbed on top
of me in my sleeping
bag! I probably frightened it a lot more than it
frightened me.
So whether or not
these animals will
become a more common
sight in our area, no
one can really say, but

No. 15 Vols hold
off Ohio, 28-19
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee is undefeated but still must deal with some major losses as
it heads into Southeastern Conference competition.
Joshua Dobbs threw a pair of 20-yard touchdown
passes to Josh Malone and ran for a third score as
the 15th-ranked Volunteers overcame injuries and a
suspension to hold off pesky Ohio 28-19 on Saturday.
The Volunteers, who have won nine straight
games over the last two years, now must wait and
see how healthy they’ll be heading into next week’s
SEC opener with No. 23 Florida.
“We’re decimated right now with injuries,” Tennessee coach Butch Jones said.
Tennessee (3-0) played Saturday without four
starters — three were injured and defensive back
Malik Foreman was suspended for a violation of
team rules. During the ﬁrst half, the Vols also lost
two team captains to injuries — cornerback Cam
Sutton and linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin.
“When those two went down, we all got together
as a defense and we were determined we were going
to win this game for those two,” linebacker Cortez
McDowell said.
Jones said Sutton would be out “an extended
period of time,” though the nature of the four-year
starter’s injury wasn’t speciﬁed. Jones was optimistic Reeves-Maybin could return from his shoulder
injury as early as next week but said the linebacker’s
status remained uncertain.
Tennessee also is waiting to learn how soon linebacker Darrin Kirkland Jr., defensive end LaTroy
Lewis, receiver Josh Smith can return from injuries that sidelined them Saturday. Their absences
resulted in featured roles for backups such as former
walk-on linebacker Colton Jumper and freshman cornerback Baylen Buchanan.
Ohio had its own injury issues. The Bobcats made
the trip without injured running backs Maleek Irons
and A.J. Ouellette. Running back Dorian Brown got
hurt during the game.

at Bachtel Stadium Friday night by a ﬁnal score
of 28-20.
On the opening
kickoff, Tojzae Reams
received the kick on
Belpre’s own 25-yard
line and returned it 75
yards into the end zone
just 13 seconds into the
ﬁrst quarter. BHS failed
on the PAT attempt by
Tojzae Reams, giving the
Golden Eagles (2-2, 2-1
TVC Hocking) a 6-0 lead
at the end of the ﬁrst
quarter.
Wahama (1-3, 0-3) had
some ﬁrepower to match
Belpre as the running
attack combination of
Colton Arrington and
Wyatt Edwards provided
the surcharge for the
White Falcons in the second quarter of the game.
At the 9:55 mark of the
second quarter, Wyatt
Edwards rushed for a
13-yard touchdown. An
unsuccessful two-point
conversion by Colton
Arrington tied the game
at six.
With 6:07 remaining in
the ﬁrst half, Issac Tullius of the Golden Eagles
completed the 55-yard
drive for Belpre with a
three-yard touchdown
run. A successful twopoint conversion run by
Tojzae Reams allowed

Belpre to push the lead
out to 14-6.
The White Falcons
wasted no time on
the clock with Wyatt
Edwards rushing for a
one-yard touchdown with
4:49 remaining in the
ﬁrst half. A successful
two-point conversion run
by Colton Arrington tied
the game at 14 going into
their respective locker
rooms at halftime.
At the 8:31 mark of
the third quarter, Colton
Arrington capped off the
White Falcons’ opening
drive of the second half
with a three-yard touchdown run. An unsuccessful two-point conversion
run by Colton Arrington
still allowed Wahama to
take their ﬁrst lead of the
game to 20-14.
Belpre’s defense recovered a fumble late in the
third quarter inside of
Wahama’s 20-yard line.
Ryan Simonette rushed
for a 20-yard touchdown,
tying the game once
again at 20-all by the end
of the third quarter.
With 10:01 remaining in the ﬁnal quarter,
Belpre’s Deijon Bedgood
capped off a six-yard
touchdown run and a
successful two-point conversion run by Issac Tullius — giving the guests

a 28-20 advantage.
The White Falcons
ate up most of the game
clock in the fourth quarter, ﬁghting with all of
their might to obtain
another touchdown to
push the game into overtime — but the White
Falcons came up just
short of the goal line.
The Golden Eagles
milked out the last two
minutes of the game and
ﬁnalized the end result
with a score of 28-20.
Bryton Grate led WHS
in passing after going
0-for-2 with zero passing
yards. Colton Arrington
led the White Falcons
in rushing with 25 carries for 60 yards. Wyatt
