The Pike Pirates traveled to Barnesville Friday night for the Battle of Potato Creek and got taken to a creekside woodshed for a sound thrashing at the hands of the Lamar County Trojans. The Trojans (1-0-1), who struggled in the first half of their opener last week against the Howard Huskies, opened a can of it on the Pirates who were down by 24 points after less than eight minutes and trailed 30-0 after one quarter and 44-0 at the half. The Pirates got nothing going until the Trojan JV had been in the game for some time. The Trojans were motivated by a basket left at the fence near their dressing room prior to the game containing pigs’ feet, bacon and bacon bits that held a card signed “From PC”. Realtime scoring from the game was provided by Walter Geiger on the sidelines’¦ Lamar 8-0. Juan Tucker 10-yd. TD run. Tucker run for two-point PAT. 5:55 1st qtr.: Lamar 16-0: Noah Eure 33-yd. TD run.
