Both teams were hot coming into Friday night's match-up between these two rivals, the second time the teams have met this season.
Newport brought a five-game winning streak while Newport Central Catholic had won six of its last seven after a winless start to the season. In the regular season match-up, the Thoroughbreds held on for a close victory but on Friday night they had an easier time of things.
The Wildcats fumbled the ball five times, their first coming on the team's first drive. Then, with the score at 6-3, the Wildcats fumbled a punt and then a kickoff leading to two New Cath touchdowns. Newport would cut the lead to ten at the half.
Then to start the second half, Newport inched closer with a touchdown and a two-point conversion.
