When they came back after halftime, the Panthers turned the corner. A spark ignited and they burned up the field. Abram picked up two more rushing touchdowns allowing Oakwood to break away. Durham had the best defensive game of the night. With his lead, the Badgers were held at bay and denied access to their endzone for the remainder of the game. The final score was 26-13. This puts the junior high football team at 2/0.
