BAINBRIDGE – Bainbridge-Guilford’s resolve and collective single-mindedness was put to the test Friday night when mistakes and bad breaks put it in one-touchdown hole against Oxford in a key Class D division battle Friday night.

As it has all season, the Bobcats were clearly the better team in the second half.

B-G held the Blackhawks to 42 yards – and zero points – over the final two quarters to capture a 30-21 victory.

The win was the sixth straight for B-G, who clinched a Section IV playoff berth for a second straight season. This weekend, Delhi entertains the Bobcats for the outright Division VII title.

“Our number one goal at the beginning of the season was not the division title, but to get into a second season,” said B-G coach Tim Mattingly “We know anything can happen there. We’re there (in the playoffs), now can go to Delhi, and we can play for our first Class D division title.”

Oxford used the big play to grab a 21-14 lead, and was poised to take a two-score lead into halftime when Alex Marin forced a fumble on a B-G bootleg, and Booker Davis recovered with 1:55 left in the half.
