The home team had won the previous six meetings between Pierce and Durham, and Pierce kept the tradition alive. The Bears' defense stepped up to hand the Trojans a 24-0 shutout on Friday. The Bears might be getting used to big wins seeing as the team has won three contests by 24 points or more this season.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Pierce to victory, but perhaps none more so than Nate Macintosh, who rushed for 103 yards and one score on only nine carries. Macintosh got the majority of those rushing yards when he took off on a run that went for an incredible 64 yards. Austin Jorge was another key player, rushing for 35 yards and one TD.
