RICHARD CANIDA - J RODNEY DIXON - Jr. Parkers Shut Out Benton Not only was the air foggy in Benton, but the Panther of- fense was too, as they were blanked by A.H.S., 10-0. The Hog defense could not have played any better against an offense that was ranked highly by reporters. AHS had 16 first downs to the Panthers 6, and the Hogs also had more total yardage with 294 to Benton's 134. The Hogs scored all of their points in the second quarter on a T.D. jaunt from Travis Jackson from the 3 yard line, and a 21 yard field goal by Kolby Nix. A.H.S. also had several more impres- sive drives only to have them cancelled by fumbles. Owen Moreland had a 51 yard punt- ing average on the night, and Casey Williams had a 54 yard run on the first play from scrimmage only to have it called back for an illegal block by the Hogs. Williams had 65 yards on 14 carries, as did Eddie Hill, who had his best game of the year so far with 96 yards on 10 carries. Moreland had an excellent night passing against the highly rated Panther defense with 6 completions on 9 at- tempts for 71 yards. Clayborn Pree and Hill had catches of 14 yards each and a great defen- sive effort was produced by Johny Standokes who had an TOMMY CARLTON - J MONTA IRVING - Jr. interception to hault a Benton drive at the Hog 18 yard line.
