Franklin Simpson 28, Glasgow 17



The Wildcats continue their late season success with a road victory over the Glasgow Scotties. They have won five of their last six games to cap off the season and have been flexing some offensive muscles during the hot streak. Darius Wickware led the way for Franklin Simpson with 152 yards rushing and 3 touchdowns. Parker Cash had a fantastic night for Glasgow going 17 for 22 for 212 yards with 2 touchdowns (1 rushing) and 1 interception.

As the Wildcats scored touchdowns in the first half the Scotties countered with drives that ended in a Dustin Thompson 26 yard field goal, a 16 yard touchdown reception from Cash to Hunter Bowles, and a crucial interception in the end zone to conclude the first half. It was a 21-9 lead for the Wildcats at halftime when they put the game away in the fourth quarter with a 15 play, 94 yard drive that ended when Max Bennett hit Jerrell Wickware on a 23 yard touchdown pass, 28-9 Franklin Simpson. Glasgow answered with a drive that ended when Parker Cash scooted in the end zone from 8 yards out and the Scotties made the two point conversion to cut the lead to 28-17.

Glasgow's onside kick rolled out of bounds and the comeback effort by the Scotties was over as Franklin Simpson killed the clock. The regular season is now over, may the Kentucky high school football madness begin.
