So far this season, the Bloomington High School South football team has rolled past non-conference foes and Conference Indiana rivals alike. The Panthers dominance continued Friday night, as Bloomington South improved its record to 6-0 and 4-0 in the conference.

With a 49-14 win over Terre Haute Vigo South on Friday, the Bloomington South Panthers improved their record to 5-0, and look to make it a half dozen wins next week against Southport. Photographer Dave Quick was in Terre Haute to capture some of the magic from Friday’s game.

Coming off last week’s loss to Bloomington South, the Bloomington High School North football team needed to turn things around in Conference Indiana play. The Cougars got headed in the right direction Friday against Terre Haute North Vigo with a 56-0 home victory.

In Spencer on Friday night, behind two first-half touchdown passes, consistent running by Braxton Carpenter and Jaxton Collier, and a defense that intercepted two passes by Owen Valley, Edgewood rolled to a 34-0 win.

Bloomington’s crosstown football rivalry added another chapter Friday night, with Bloomington South once again getting the upper hand. The Panthers, who entered the game with a 50–16 series lead over North, stretched that margin with a 36–7 victory.

Bloomington High School North and South know each other well. The two schools sit on opposite sides of town. But that means the campuses are separated by just five miles, which is about 75 football fields laid end to end.
