It was Homecoming in Stuart Friday night and after the game, there was a good fireworks show put on by school. However, the fireworks actually started in the first quarter, when Radford lit up the scoreboard for 30 first quarter points en route to a 44-0 lopsided victory over Patrick County in non-district action. The Cougars loss was their 26^th-straight.

On the ensuing kickoff, the Cougars (0-5), facing a fourth-and two at their own 40 yard line, Patrick County gained seven yards to move the ball to the 47. On the next play, Pulaski County coughed up the ball and Radford's Eric Benitez recovered the pigskin at mid-field. The running of Marcus Findley, Isaiah Findley, Alex Wright, and Marshall Hunter set up the Cats next score that saw D'Andre Cook find the house from 10-yards out and Findley's PAT made it 14-0 with 6:44 showing.

On the ensuing kickoff, Patrick County was held to a three-and-out.

On the free kick, the Bobcats took over at the Cougar 48-yard line. Two plays later, Marshall connected with Cook on an 19-yard scoring strike and Findley's PAT increased the Radford advantage to 23-0 with 5:24 still remaining in the first quarter. A 25-yard TD pass from Marshall to Cook at the 2:34 mark made it 30-0, Radford, with 2:34 on the clock.

Just three seconds into the second quarter, Carter scampered from three yards out to make it 37-0, Radford. The Bobcats had another opportunity to score again at the 8:42 mark.

The second half saw the running clock rule go into effect. Under VHSL rules, if a team is down by 35 or more points in the second half, the clock remains running except for timeouts and out of bounds plays,

The Bobcats took advantage of the opportunity, as many of the younger players got plenty of playing time on both offense and defense.

In the fourth quarter, Patrick County drove to the Radford 16 before Malcolm Thompson picked off the ball at the 16-yard line. Late in the game, The Cougars drove to the Cats’ 5-yard line and once again, the Radford defense rose the occasion to preserve the shutout.
