Permian Grinds Out 7-0 Homecoming Victory
Permian remains unbeaten at 7-0 after a hard fought 7-0 win over Abilene at W.T. Barrett Stadium before about 10,500. Dale Carr’s 28-yard TD run with 5:32 left provided the margin as the Panthers, plagued by turnovers and a stalled passing game, clung to a district lead over Midland Lee. Coach John Wilkins lamented offensive execution despite a stout defensive effort that held Abilene to 17 yards in the first half and 63 total, with injuries and miscues shaping a tense night.
