WINNSBORO – Cary Christian bested Richard Winn 50-16 in Winnsboro on Friday night in the Eagles’ season opener.

Up 28-8 after the end of the first quarter, the Knights’ productive offense proved too much for the Eagles to overcome.

Cary Christian held the Eagles scoreless in the second and third quarters, adding 22 more points for a 50-8 lead with only a quarter remaining. Richard Winn managed to find the endzone in the fourth, but the deficit was too great to overcome.

The Eagles will travel to Newberry Academy for their SCISA Region opener this week. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m.
