…When you’re playing good football teams - which our schedule seems to be full of them - you’ve got to seize those opportunities,” Jaggers said.ĭespite his disappointment, Jaggers, a former Lincoln and Danville player and the son of one of Lincoln’s most successful coaches, said he was thrilled with the atmosphere for his first game as the Patriots’ coach. “We had our opportunities, and that’s probably the most frustrating part.
“They were doing some things against us in the run game, and we made some really nice adjustments,” he said.Ĭurliss was named Lincoln’s player of the game after rushing for a team-high 69 yards, and Horton threw for 140 yards on 7-of-14 passing and ran for 30 yards. Lincoln’s offense amassed 362 yards, but Peach said his defense played well. In all, Danville got 379 of its 395 yards on the ground, and quarterback Enrique Gutierrez-Jacobs completed three of seven passes for 18 yards in his first start. The Admirals also got 78 yards from junior Demontrae Trumbo, whom Peach said played well during times when Brown had to come off the field. Danville held it for almost seven minutes before the Admirals’ Sasha Wade recovered a fumble on a punt, and Josh Bixler added a clinching touchdown on a 1-yard run with 1:20 to play.īrown was named Danville’s player of the game after the biggest night of his career. However, the Patriots didn’t get the ball back until it was too late. Lincoln quarterback Sawyer Horton scored on a 1-yard run, pulling the Patriots within 20-14 with 9:38 to play. However, Lincoln’s first score only motivated Danville, as Brown returned the kickoff 90 yards for another touchdown that made it 20-7 with 2:28 left in the period. “They’ve got speed over there, and they were manning up and bringing the house, which kind of threw off a lot of the rhythm of some of our passing game and (run-pass options) that we’d been doing the last couple weeks,” Jaggers said.

It was the first time the Patriots had been able to crack a Danville defense that had basically been impenetrable to that point. That’s when a third-down sack by Lincoln’s Hunter Hanely stopped a Danville drive and led to a 91-yard scoring drive capped by Reed Curliss’ 46-yard touchdown run. The Admirals had problems with penalties throughout the game, most of which were the line of scrimmage or delay of game calls, but they maintained their 13-0 lead until the third quarter. Kaleb Wilcher’s PAT kick gave Danville a 13-0 lead. “You’re never big on moral victories at all, but I saw a whole lot of positives,” Jaggers said.īrown’s first touchdown came five plays into the game on a 30-yard run with 9:42 left in the first quarter and set the tone for the rest of the game.ĭanville’s defense stopped Lincoln with the help of two sacks, and Brown scored again less than three minutes later, this time on a 72-yard run.
