John Clinton McElroy hauled in a 27 yard pass from Haggard plus a Robert’s PAT to push the lead to 14-0. Tyler Roberts added a 24 yard field goal and senior wide-out Bo Bidgood completed the first half scoring with a 15 yard touchdown reception from Haggard. The PAT failed and Lamar took a 23-0 lead into the half.
Lamar tacked on two more scores in the third quarter. Witt Haggard hit Michael Marcello with a 7 yard strike and linebacker William Fulton returned an interception 30 yards for the final score of the night.
Witt Haggard finished the night 20/27 and 276 yards passing with 3 touchdowns. Haggard also added a rushing touchdown. Bo Bidgood had 15 catches for 192 yards and a score.
