</element><element id="paragraph-1" type="body"><![CDATA[ Pinckneyville varsity football got their second win of the season on Friday night, pulling away for a 30-6 victory over Sparta on Homecoming and Senior Night at PCHS.

The Panthers went to work quick, forcing a three-and-out on defense and scoring on a 50-yard touchdown pass on their second play from scrimmage. Bryant Shute found Jake Bathon for the long completion, and Shute took in the two-point conversion for an 8-0 lead.

Shute then scored from 4 yards out with 8:01 remaining in the half, and Ben Harriss found a big hole for a 24-yard touchdown run with 7:38 left in the third quarter. Shute's two-point run made it 22-0.

Shute would add a 22-yard touchdown run to his numbers with 3:24 to go in the game.

The Panthers (2-5, 2-2) are at Chester next week for the final time before the Yellow Jackets leave the S.I.R.R. Mississippi Division.
