The Lewis County Middle School Panthers kicked off their 2021 football season at home on Tuesday, August 17, 2021 at A.B. Sisco Athletic Field, hosting the Summertown Eagles.
The visitors from Summertown took the opening kickoff and dominated the clock in the first quarter before Lewis County took possession and marched downfield to find the endzone on a 28-yard run by Micah Godfrey. After the failed two-point conversion the Panthers led 6-0. Midway through the second quarter Godfrey drifted back to receive a punt and returned it 74 yards for a Panther touchdown. Reggie Wade added the two-point conversion, and the Panthers took a 14-0 lead. Just before the half, the Panthers used big runs to set up a 7-yard touchdown run by Wade and a two-point run by Jalen Smith to extend the lead to 22-0 at the half. The final scoring drive of the game for the Panthers came in the third quarter when Godfrey found the edge and sprinted by the Eagle defense on an 84-yard run. Wade added the two-point conversion and the Panthers led 30-0. With only 2:39 remaining in the game the Eagles found the endzone on a 7-yard run and added the two-point conversion to make the score 30-8, which held to the final as the Panthers took the opening-night victory.
