The JV Leopards were up 21-0 going into the half, al lowing a number of sideline players to get into the game during the second half. Banks threw Kenny Langston, Dean Ewing, Jameson Flynn and Drew Elrod onto the field to break apart the Athens defense. Three passes from Alex Banks connect ed to Jordan Smith, Logan Prater and Brannon Scales. Nathan Krumnow led the offensive line, which domi nated the line of scrimmage.
