CHILLICOTHE — Symmes Valley coach Rusty Webb didn’t say much. He didn’t have to.

Webb said it was easy to explain the Vikings 28-13 loss to the Southeastern Panthers Friday.

“We just need to overcome some things. We fought hard, we just need to play better and make some plays,” said Webb.

Symmes Valley (1-1) took a 7-0 lead on a 78-yard pass from Payton Hayes to Tyler Rowe. Tyler Ferguson kicked the point after.

The Panthers answered with a 4-yard scoring run by Kannon Strausburg with 2:02 left in the quarter. Dylan Miles kicked the first of his four extra points.

The Vikings came right back to score when Collin Webb intercepted a pass and returned it 90 yards for the score. The conversion failed and it was 13-7 with 9:56 left in the half.

The Panthers went 61 yards in 12 plays capped by Travis Abner’s 1-yard run with just five seconds left in the half as they took a 14-13 lead.

Southeastern (2-0) scored twice in the third quarter. Jordan Allen caught a 66-yard TD pass and Dezmond Perkins ran 2 yards with 2:04 left in the fourth.

The Vikings had 226 total yards with 125 on the ground. Tanner Mays ran 15 times for 51 yards and Webb had 46 yards on nine carries.

Hayes and Mays were a combined 6 of 8 passing for 101 yards.

The Panthers had 399 total yards including 227 on the ground. Abner was 8 of 11 passing for 172 yards and ran 17 times for 66 yards. Perkins rushed 23 times for 139 yards.
