 The U-Pike Bears are looking to try and improve on last year's four-win season as they matched up with Bluefield tonight in tonight's season opener. Stepping out on the field for the first time this season in Bluefield, West Virginia, dressed sharp in the gray and orange on the Rams 25-yard line, the Bears trying to get the ball rolling early, but they would let it slip right through their hands for a little bit of a sloppy start and everyone's pointing towards the Bluefield's end zone, but the Rams would take over, not for long, as the Bears started pointing in their own direction after the ball takes a hop, skip, and a bounce and is picked up as the Bears take over. Both teams showing some first game jitters, but after that the Bears will take off literally. Willie McLeod is off to the races ahead by a few yards, diving into the end zone for the Bears' first touchdown of the season. The Rams couldn't and wouldn't respond to U-Pikes' touchdown until the second quarter. Check this out, five foot five, 150 pounds Malik Brown, and yes he's every bit of five foot five, just eases his way into the end zone and we're tied at seven. Just before the half, the Bears do pick up a field goal, but they try to put more points up on the board as they have the opportunity to put six more, but Sonny Warren the quarterback with the quarterback keep just three seconds before the half runs into a meat wall and will bounce right back off. We head into the half and this is where it all gets interesting. Belfry's own Sonny Warren drops back in the end zone, meets another local player in Hazard's own Jordan Owinger who finished the night with six catches for the Bears. Sonny's working his magic in the pocket as he picks up another big game this time to Anthony Brown as they drive, drive, drive down the field on the Rams and the cameraman was sleeping on this one as the Bears end up on the 23 yard line so close to the end zone. Warren looks left, right, Jukes steps and connects with Anthony Brown in the end zone for another Bear touchdown and that will seal the deal for the Bears as they picked up 376 yards of total offense. Final score of the night from Bluefield West Virginia, the University of Pikeville picking up their first win of the season 24-20 over Bluefield College.
