Elkmont falls to 0-3

— Elkmont rushed for 239 yards, but still dropped a Class 3A Region 8 game at Westminster Christian Friday. The Wildcats jumped out to a 19-0 halftime lead and never looked back in a 40-14 win.

Elkmont drove down the field and scored on its first possession of the second half on a 25-yard run by Dustin Ward. That was as close as the visitors would come, however as Westminster scored on the next three possessions to pull away for the win.

The Wildcats rushed for 316 yards, led by Jordan Lake, who carried the ball 11 times for 163 yards and two touchdowns. Westminster quarterback Jacob Parker completed 7-of-11 pass attempts for 84 yards and one touchdown.

Elkmont was led by Dustin Ward, who carried the ball 11 times for 125 yards. Elkmont quarterback Bryant Wales scored the Red Devils’ other touchdown on a 10-yard run in the fourth quarter.

Elkmont (0-3, 0-2) will host West Morgan next week while Westminster (2-1, 1-1) will travel Colbert County.
