Bearcats Lose Friday Game to Jonesboro Tigers

Ruston high Bearcats, far from their best, fell to Jonesboro 13 to 6 at Jonesboro in a four quarter game marked by turnovers and a stubborn Tiger line. Chandler to Hilburn yielded Ruston’s lone score as McDonald and Stevenson combined for a second quarter touchdown but the try failed. Jonesboro capitalized on a blocked punt and controlled much of the proceedings with a criss cross formation, while Ruston’s defense steadied in the second half. Substitutions and late rallies did little to change the outcome as Jonesboro seized breaks and maintained the lead throughout.
