BERRYVILLE — There is a reason that Pea Ridge is the No. 2 team in the state in Class 4A.

Berryville found out the hard way in a game on Ronnie Clark Field Friday night. The Bobcats lost to the Blackhawks, 35-0.

The Bobcats defense made things interesting in the first quarter after stopping Pea Ridge on its first drive. However, on the Bobcats first punt, the Blackhawks returned the kick 96 yards to set the scoreboard at 7-0.

Pea Ridge added another touchdown with 38 seconds left in the first on a 1-yard run to make it 14-0.

A second period score was followed by two more in the third period to set the final score at 35-0 as neither team found the end zone in the fourth period.
