The Golden Bears saw a potential opportunity to find a rare road win in the HHC as they traveled to Yorktown. The Tigers who have shown some inconsistent play all season seemed to find their groove on Friday night. The Golden Bears struggled to move the ball on the ground and in the air, while finding the Tigers offense difficult to contain. In the end, the Golden Bears fell to the Tigers 42-0. The Yorktown Tigers offensive and defensive lines were found to be troublesome for the Golden Bears as the Tigers running attack on offense moved down field and and defensively put the clamps on what has been a successful running game all season.

The Golden Bears will be home on Friday when they face off against #1 ranked New Palestine starting at 7PM.
