The Raider varsity offense never got in gear at the Kickoff Classic won by Milton 6 – 0 on their home field Aug 21. The Raiders managed only one first down and that was on the last play of the game. Milton completely shut down the running game of the Raiders. Throughout the game, the Panther defense swarmed to the ball and stopped the ball carrier before they could gather momentum. The Raider passing game beat themselves as several first down passes were dropped in the first quarter.

Pressure by the Panther defense resulted in several passes by senior Matt Webb to be underthrown. Until the last play of the game, the longest pass play covered three yards.
