Prep Roundup: Prescott wins 26th straight regular season game


PRESCOTT, Ark. -- Prescott scored 36 points in the first quarter to easily cruise past Hope, 63-20, to remain unbeaten on Friday night.

Prescott (3-0) has now won 26 straight regular season games.

The Curley Wolves got on the scoreboard first after a 13-yard run by Brenan Bradley early in the first quarter. Shortly after, Jamariun Burton found the endzone on a 20-yard run.

Hope (0-3) answered back on kickoff when Caleb Anderson returned it 82 yards to cut into their defecit.

But that would be as close as the Bobcats would get rest of the way.

Prescott scored the next five touchdowns and went into halftime with a lead large enough to ensure the clock never stopped running in the second half.

During that run, quarterback Carson Poole scored on 1- and 7-yard runs, D'Wayne White caught a 45-yard pass for a touchdown, Travarion Dickens ran in from 53 yards out and again on a 1-yard rush. Poole finished with 173 yards and a TD on 11 of 18 passing and three rushing touchdowns.

Tamarrion Lindsey scored the Bobocats' last points in the fourth quarter when Patterson hit him on a 5-yard pass.

Prescott hits the road Friday to play Gurdon, while Hope travels to De Queen. Both games set to kickoff at 7 p.m.
