The Port Neches-Groves football team showcased its offense as best it could Friday night in a weather-delayed scrimmage against Memorial. The scrimmage kicked off more than two hours after its scheduled 5:30 p.m. start because of lightening in the area.
Once the scrimmage got underway, Faircloth had to have liked what he saw. PN-G opened to a 21-10 lead through two quarters, with each of his quarterbacks having a hand in a pair of touchdowns.
Faircloth shuffled junior quarterbacks Brennan Doty and Matt Desmond in and out of the lineup, giving fans a taste of what they might see in the regular season opener next Friday against Barbers Hill.
Doty completed 11 of 19 passes for 159 yards and a 22-yard touchdown pass to Spencer Deron. As for Desmond, he scored on a 1-yard run. PN-G got a third touchdown when Caleb Harmon scored on a 14-yard run.
