NTL FOOTBALL: PANTHERS FALL TO TROJANS (2021-09-17)

Northern Tier West Sports Report
TROY — North Penn-Mansfield fell behind Troy early Friday night in their NTL Large School match-up, struggled to get anything going against the Trojan’s defense and ultimately fell, 35-0.

Troy struck first, scoring on a Justice Chimics two-yard keeper, then added a Damian Landon score later in the first quarter. Chimics hit both extra point attempts, giving the Trojans a 14-0 lead.

The Panthers held Troy to a FG attempt early in the second quarter, took over on their own 20 after the attempt failed, and put together a sustained drive that took them down to the Troy 24-yard line. 

NPM turned it over there on downs, and Troy ate up the rest of the quarter driving to the Panther two and Clayton Smith punching it in with :17 left in the half, extending Troy’s lead to 21-0.

Coming out of the break, the Panther’s Cameron Fabian returned the second-half kickoff to midfield. A NPM drive ended at the Troy 20, where the Trojans took over. 

NPM’s Gavin Sexauer ended the Trojans’ drive with a fumble recovery, but the Trojans came up with an interception of a Karson Dominick pass to get the ball right back.

After a scoreless third quarter, Troy continued to move the ball, chew up clock and put points on the board.
 
With 5:40 left in the game, Trojan Gavin Cohick hauled in a tipped pass from Chimics for a score, and on NPM’s next possession, Troy’s Mason Woodward picked Dominick off in the flat and returned it for the Trojans’ final score. 

Dominick finished 6-15 for 25 yards and two interceptions. Fabian rushed 10 times for 51 yards, while Kohen Lehman had six carries for 21 yards and Sexauer had five carries for 15 yards. Fabian had five receptions for 25 yards.

The Panthers fall to 1-3 with the loss. They’ll welcome 0-4 Towanda next Friday.
