Beaufort High’s defense could only stand strong so long against Georgia powerhouse Valdosta in a 44-7 road loss Friday.
The Eagles’ defense showed some resistance early, keeping Beaufort within 14-0 after one quarter, but the Wildcats were able to stretch the lead to 30-0 at halftime and 44-0 entering the fourth quarter.
Tyler Haley connected with his older brother, Matthew Haley, for a touchdown pass to get the Eagles on the board in the fourth.
Daryl DePass and William Winburn each recorded interceptions, and Alvin Wilson and Theo Washington each had a sack for Beaufort.
The Eagles (0-3) return home to face Blythewood next Friday.
