In their previous meeting,
Beaumont Central got away by the skin of its teeth with a 35 - 34 win over
Lumberton. The rematch wasn't quite so close. Beaumont Central was able to grind out a solid victory over Lumberton last week, winning 16 - 6.
Beaumont Central's defense put the team in a good position heading into the break, holding Lumberton to a measly zero points. That put Beaumont Central at a 16 - 0 advantage. It coasted on this initial advantage in its totally barren second half.
The defeat dropped Lumberton's record to 3-4. The loss is only the most recent in a discouraging three-game streak. Beaumont Central is now evened up at 2-2.
