Farmington edges Perryville 8-7

Only 13 seconds stood between Perryville and its first win of the season, but unfortunately 13 seconds was all the time Farmington needed.

Farmington won 8-7 on Friday.

The Pirates, who scored their first touchdown of the season, could not keep Farmington out of the end zone on a last second two-point conversion, and fell by one.

The Pirates were once again plagued by mistakes. Nine penalties, a blocked punt, a fumbled punt and three lost fumbles doomed Perryville.

"We just shoot ourselves in the foot," Perryville coach Lance Bell said. "Same story, different day."

Perryville had its best offensive night of the season in the loss. The Pirates had two 100-yard rushers on the night, with Joel Kurre running for 106 yards on 24 carries and Jesse Whistler gaining 110 yards on 14 carries.

Kyle Dobbelare was 6-for-11 passing for 63 yards. Andrew Yamnitz and Nick Erlacker had two receptions apiece.

Perryville's defense played a strong game, limiting Farmington to less than 150 yards total offense and shutting the Knights down three times within the 10-yard line.
