Bobcats Drop Tough Road Game in Hot Springs
Hot Springs- Not a lot went Hope's way Friday night as they traveled to Hot Springs to take on the Trojans in their first road conference game. Hot Springs jumped out to a 21-0 lead and did not look back as they defeated the Bobcats 53-13. 

Donovan Jones had a great runback to set up an Isaac Love TD reception from Tyler Patterson. On the opening drive of the third quarter, Tyler Patterson took off running to the endzone to give the Bobcats their second TD of the game. 

Tyler Patterson finished the game with 83 yards passing and one TD and 29 yards rushing and a TD. Isaac Love would add to his TD total Friday night, bringing his season total to 7, Love has scored in every game so far this season. 

KD Gulley led the Bobcats with nine tackles. Juan Ortiz and Donavan Jones each had five tackles. Jones had a good game on special teams, returning kicks as well. Xavier Key was a bright spot for the O-Line Friday night as he had a great game. Hope plays host next week to #1 ranked Parkview with kickoff set for 7:00 pm.
