 The Perryville football team downed visiting Kent County 56-28 Friday night in the region semifinals. The two-time defending region champion Panthers will travel to Cambridge-South Dorchester for the region title game. Cambridge topped Bohemia Manor 49-28 Friday night. It will be the third straight season the Panthers will play the Vikings with the region crown on the line. Against Kent County Friday, Perryville scored on the first play from scrimmage when Eathen Griffin burst up the middle for a 58-yard TD jaunt. Kent countered quickly with a 46-yard run for a score but tried a fake PAT for a two-point conversion and failed leaving the Panthers with a 7-6 edge. Elijah Johnson's four-yard TD upped the lead to 14-6. After Kyle Savick made a tackle on a fourth down screen pass, quarterback Cam Cunningham hit Tyrell Hollingsworth in stride down the left sideline for a 48-yard scoring strike to make it 21-6. Hollingsworth had an interception to give Perryville the ball back and Cunningham's two-yard plunge extended the advantage to 28-6 with 10:43 left in the second quarter. A Jeff Pollard sack forced a punt and Griffin ran two yards for a score to make it 35-6. Kent County got within 35-14 before Johnson scored on a two-yard run with 20 seconds left in the half to put Perryville ahead 42-14 at the break. Johnson scurried 70 yards for a TD to raise the lead to 49-14 midway through the third quarter. Johnson added another TD with a 20-yard run sandwiched between two Kent TDs. Comments are closed.
