Now, the tough part of their schedule comes up. Undefeated King City will come to town Friday for Homecoming, and then Pattonsburg will travel to face a tough St. Joseph Christian squad. They close out their regular season with games against Worth County and archrival Albany.
The Panthers got off to a slow start as Stanberry hung around, trailing 16-6 and then 24-12 before Pattonsburg pulled away to a 48-19 halftime lead. Anything could happen, and they were stuck behind the chains after letting the play clock get down to one second and Fortner planted the turf after getting sacked. But a bubble screen to Wyatt Maize sprung him loose and he took it to the house to make it 54-19 with 10:50 left in the third.
From there, Pattonsburg made a goal line stand to seal the win. The first was after a fluke play occurred, when one of the Panthers batted Drew Parman's pass in the air, but right to Pax Schieber, who took it to the 25. Pattonsburg then set up fourth and eight at the 23, only for Gavin Humphrey to slip and fall and Stanberry completed a long pass to the 9 to keep the drive going. Carries by Parman and Jake Holtzclaw took it to the three and then Jace Estrada dropped Parman at the three to set up fourth and goal. Jace Estrada came through again, dropping Parman at the one and Pattonsburg had held on downs.
A pair of penalties kept Pattonsburg in check at first, but a 21-yard catch and run by Wyatt Maize took the ball to the 28 and a first down. From there, Wyatt Maize got loose for 44 yards to the Stanberry 8, and a horsecollar penalty put it on the four. Brant Jensen broke up a pass, but then Camden Griffith caught a pass to make it 60-19 with 1:48 left.
After the third quarter, Stanberry threw in the towel and the teams turned it over to their reserves. Alex Young and Henry Frank combined on a tackle for loss after Stanberry had gotten as far as the Pattonsburg 26, and then Beau Gibson and Jeremy Pittsenbarger combined on a sack to set up fourth down. Pittsenbarger got a sack and forced a fumble, recovered by Kayson Sims at the Stanberry 34.
Beau Gibson slipped a series of tackles to the 27 and then picked up six more to the 21. That set up a pass from Colton Crone to Kaos Sweiger from 21 yards out with 6:30 left.
Gibson showed what he was made of on defense, dropping the Stanberry back on the ensuing kickoff at the 27. Pattonsburg overcame an offsides penalty to get a stop as Jeremy Pittsenbarger blew up a keeper and Kaos Sweiger and Beau Gibson stopped a third down scramble short of the first down. Colton Crone broke up a fourth down pass and Pattonsburg got the ball back on downs. Two long passes from Crone to Sweiger got Pattonsburg back in the end zone as time expired.
