On Friday night, the Canon-McMillan Big Macs beat the South Fayette Lions by a final score of 14-7. This game was a very defensive game, as there was only one turnover and a lot of punts.
Macs Quarterback Mike Evans began scoring by scrambling down the left sideline for a touchdown late in the first quarter.

There would be over 10 minutes of football played before the next time someone would score. That score came from Lions Quarterback Nico Lamonde evened up the score at 7 by scrambling for a touchdown of his own.
