Randleman beat a team that hadn’t been scored on in its first three games, Asheboro picked up an early second win and SWR romped for the second straight week. Here’s a look at last week’s football results.

Tigers remain undefeated

Daylan Atkins and Ty Moton ran for touchdowns while wide receiver Tyshaun Goldston threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Jay Richards as the 4-0 Tigers knocked off previously unbeaten Union Pines 21-7.

Quarterback John Kirkpatrick threw for 184 yards and Atkins had 79 yards rushing on 12 carries. 

Goldston made his throw after receiving a lateral from Kirkpatrick to cap off a short drive which started after a muffed punt. 

Moton’s 2-yard touchdown run came after Union Pines (3-1) had cut Randleman’s lead to 14-7.
