Chandler Ray added the extra point and SGA led 7-0 at the 10:15 mark of the first quarter. SGA kicked off to Ashford. The kick was rolling around near the sideline on the wet grass and somehow SGA recovered the ball at the Ashford 14-yard line. Keaton Smith ran it around the left end for the touchdown on the first play from scrimmage and Ray added the extra point, extending SGA's lead to 14- 0. Ashford picked up a couple of first downs on their next possession before fumbling. Will Brown recovered the ball giving SGA a first down at the 41-yard line. It took SGA just six plays to find pay dirt again. Brown took the handoff up the middle and rumbled 46 yards for the touchdown. Ray added the extra point upping SGA's lead to 21-0. The Warrior defense forced the Falcons to punt again on the ensuing possession, but SGA fumbled the ball back to Ashford giving the Falcons the ball at the SGA 15-yard line. It did the Falcons no good. SGA held Ashford to two yards on two plays and the Falcons fumbled the ball right back to the Warriors with Taylor Tabb recovering for SGA. Will Brown broke off another long touchdown run for the Warriors on the first play from scrimmage. Brown took the handoff up the middle and cut it to the sideline and outraced the Falcon defenders for an 88 yard touchdown run. Andrew Stone added the extra point putting SGA up 28-0 with 11 seconds left in the first quarter. On SGA's next possession, Jamison Burch got things rolling with a 15-yard run and Tanner Harrell added runs of 12 and 7 yards. Cody Buckhalter scored SGA's final touchdown of the night running it in from 11 yards out. Stone added the extra point making it a 35-0 ballgame at the 6:48 mark of the second quarter.

Chandler Ray and Andrew Stone continued their excellent play with another perfect night kicking extra points.
With the win, the Warriors' record improves to 5-1. The Warriors will be on the road Friday traveling to Woodbury to play the high-powered Flint River Academy Wildcats. The Wildcats are sporting a 38- game regular season winning streak. They are 6-0 this season and their offense has put up at least 35 points in every game. The Warriors will need to be at their best Friday night if they are going to bring the Wildcats streak to an end.
