KAPLAN - The Kaplan Pirates were hoping for a win against the Church Point Bears, but unfortunately, it didn’t happen.
The Bears took the lead by 12 points in the first quarter and managed to hold on to their lead to win the non-district game 12-8.
The Pirates’ chances were hindered by two fumbles and an interception that stopped them from scoring.
“It wasn’t our best game,” admitted KHS head coach Cory Brodie. “We can’t take anything away from Church Point. They (Church Point) played well and deserved to win. We lost the game as much as they won it.”
