Burke County's Jalin Simon, left, hauls in a touchdown pass over Statesboro High defender Isa Mobley during the second quarter Friday. Burke County's offense scored early and often as the Bears cruised to a 49-28 victory to spoil the Blue Devils' homecoming Friday night at Womack Field.
The Statesboro Blue Devil football team has shown progress from a year ago, but Friday night’s game with Burke County was very reminiscent of the past couple of seasons. In fact, the score was nearly identical as Statesboro lost 42-27 last year, and 49-28 Friday at Womack Field.
