After one half, Trion leads Irwin County 9-6.

Irwin County struck first with a touchdown on the ground, but missed the extra point to take a 6-0 lead. Trion then answered with a touchdown drive of their own. After nailing the extra point, the points were waved off due to an illegal procedure penalty against the Dawgs. After being backed up for the second attempt, the PAT was blocked, leaving the score tied at 6 all. 

The second quarter saw both teams trade punts, with both defenses seeming to figure out the opposing offenses. Trion caught a big break after the Trion Defense swarmed to the ball and knocked it loose, recovering the fumble in Irwin County territory. With 3 minutes remaining in the half, Trion mounted a drive that took them into field goal range. Trion kicker Navarro converted a 35 yard field goal to give the Bulldogs a 9-6 lead with only 3 seconds remaining. Trion squibbed the kickoff and the half ended with Trion on top 9-6.
