BRUNDIDGE – A strong turnaround season came to an end for Pike County’s football team on Friday night.
The Bulldogs couldn’t overcome the loss of two standouts early in the game, a rash of penalties, four turnovers and a stout Mobile Christian defense, falling to the Leopards 27-7 in an AHSAA Class 3A state quarterfinal game at Bulldog Stadium.“It took a lot of hard work and a lot of dedication and believing we could do it,” said Pike County head coach Mark Hurt, who guided the turnaround in his first season at the helm of his alma mater.
“We lost half of our offense and a lot of our defense,” Hurt said, especially referring to Foster, who accounted for 26 touchdowns in receiving, rushing and in returns, both kick and interceptions. “Ian got hurt on the first play of the game. Nemo let his youngness get the best of him when somebody pushed him from the back.”
The first major mistake came midway in the first quarter. With Mobile Christian backed up at the 10, a shanked punt bounced inside the 25. Pike County’s Que Carter decided to grab the football, but fumbled while doing so and Mobile Christian recovered at the 21. The Leopards defense, which bottled up the Bulldogs most of the night, helped Mobile Christian start at the 49 on the ensuing series. After two open receivers dropped potential touchdown passes, the Leopards went right back down the middle of the field, taking advantage of the absence of Foster in the secondary with a 34-yard Landon Snow to Michael Moore touchdown pass with 25 seconds left in the half. The extra point kick was good by Carter Lewis, making it 7-0 at halftime.
Three plays into the Bulldog series, Pike County threw another interception and the Leopards returned it to the PCHS 18. Two plays later, Brewer took a forward toss from the quarterback around the right end 6 yards to paydirt. Lewis’ PAT made it 20-0 with 2:12 left in the third.
