New Bern Bears fall to Jacksonville in rain soaked loss
New Bern entered the season opener looking strong but stumbled at home Friday as Jacksonville built a 26-0 halftime lead and rolled to a 26-14 victory. Coach Chip Williams criticized the first half as noncompetitive while Jacksonville dominated both lines and produced 281 yards by halftime. The Bears’ running game stalled and they were shut out in the passing and punt game against Havelock’s strong defense.
