Taylor, Tigers run past Portal
Portal
CLAXTON - Quarterback Cornelious Taylor led the Claxton Tigers up and down the field and Portal couldn't keep up, as the Panthers fell 31-14 Friday in the Region 3A-A opener for both teams at the Pecan Grove. Taylor rushed for 98 yards and two second-half scores and added two more touchdowns through the air for the Tigers (4-1, 1-0), who trailed 14-10 in the second quarter before rattling off 21 unanswered points. Taylor gained 168 yards on the ground, but a tough PHS defense tackled him in the backfield eight times, including a pair of sacks.
