Portsmouth stopped in West territory (think around 42). Punts to
West 7 yard line. 21-14, Portsmouth. Two rushes by Pendleton
for West to Siders 29 yard line. Waiting on a time check from radio.

[rachelcreek]

Pendleton just broke off a 64-yard touchdown run, on third and four
from the West 36. 21-20, Portsmouth. Auger's kick goes wide left,
with 4:14 to play. Think Pendleton is now over 100 yards and
then some for West. Thriller at the new 'Yard" in Portsmouth.

[rachelcreek]

Kickoff to PHS 36, no return. 94 yard scoring drive by West in five
plays, capped by the Pendleton long distance TD run. 4:00 to play.

[rachelcreek]

Third and short three, two minutes to play, 21-20 PHS. Trojan ball.

[rachelcreek]

Trojans convert third down for first down, with 1:30 to play.
Radio thinks West has only one time out left. PHS in West
territory. Time out on the field, West.

great win portsmouth, way to hold off a dangerous opponent, almost let it get away from you

[rachelcreek]

Radio says game numbers:

Total offense: PHS 227 yards West 207 yards

Penalties: PHS 10-71 yards; West 8-65 yards

First Downs: PHS 15 West 10

Think Meyers of PHS (QB) was 10-16 for 135 yards.
Ratliff of West (QB) was 1-6 for I think, 16 yards.

Did not get additional individual numbers.

A great win for thr Trojans.

West is a 5-5 or 6-4 team at best this year.

they lost too much talent last year. Not hearing much from the select few West posters who said West would dominate their schedule this year.

Packed house in Portsmouth. Great game. Thought it was going to be a blow out but West running back is hardcore. Like high school version of B. Wells

West totally dominated the second half, we was lucky to get the win. Great game with all the fans and the way it ended. GO TROJANS!!!!

My pre game prediction was 21 to 20 portsmouth. I got lucky there.

[Portsmouth98]

Definitely a great way to open up the Coliseum. Will probably be our best game of the year.

Why were you not at Ozzie and Big Dawgs pre-game tailgate?

[Portsmouth98]

Had to wait for Casey, she worked till 5:30, we were at the game before 6:30 and barely got a seat.
