BEARVILLE – Defending Class 2A champion Pierce County methodically pulled away from visiting Brantley County here Friday night in winning a 42-7 non-region tilt.

“They are probably the best team in South Georgia,” said Brantley County first-year head coach David Shores, who’s team fell to 0-3. “They have a top tier quarterback who can throw and run, and they have top quality skill players.

“We definitely played better than we did last week (20-7 home loss to Windsor Forest). We need to get sharper in our execution and we need to elevate our secondary play. We gave up too many chunk plays in the passing game (seven completions of 20-plus yards).”
