Palestine 47, Carthage 21

[Sandman]

Palestine has scored 87 points in two games. They have two interception returns for touchdown. The defense is still a little shaky. They have looked great, but I believe that all 6 touchdowns scored against them have been big plays. I don't have the stats in front of me, but I believe Carthage had fewer than 5 first downs the entire game and all the touchdowns were 56 yards or longer. Next week they get a struggling 4A Henderson team.

Take away the two long runs and Carthage had negative rushing yards.
