PORTAL — The Portal Panthers got off to a fast start, but Metter’s Devin Byrd took control in the second quarter and never let go. The senior, who was moved to the point for the first time this season under first-year coach Dwayne Davis, scored 14 of his game-high 17 points in the first half and finished with eight rebounds and four assists as the Tigers handed Portal its first loss of the season to the tune of 72-48 Friday in the new PHS gym. “He’s a blessing to have on the team,” Davis said of Byrd.
