After a competitive first half, undefeated Jacksonville Trinity Christian (12-0) scored three touchdowns in the first two minutes of the second half to turn what had been a close game against the Taylor County Bulldogs into a blow-out Friday night at Dorsett Stadium in
Perry.

Aided by three second-half Bulldog turnovers, the defending state champion Conquerors continued their march toward a third straight state championship by scoring four touchdowns in just under six minutes during the 3rd quarter on the way to a 51-0 victory over the Bulldogs (6-6) in the second round of the Class 3A play-offs.
