Princeton, Gurganus outlast North Johnston, 38-34

Princeton senior quarterback David Gurganus threw for 437 yards and two touchdowns and added the game-winning touchdown run as the Bulldogs topped North Johnston 38-34 on Friday night.

Both teams had double-digit leads erased on the night. Princeton led 18-7 in the first half and North led 28-18 in the second half. But Guragnus scored on a 4-yard TD run with 4:15 to play to give the Bulldogs the final margin. 

A stop at midfield on fourth-and-1 by Princeton's defense helped set up the game-winning drive.

North drove back to the Princeton 9-yard-line in the final seconds but ran out of time.

The win moved Princeton to 4-0 overall, while North dropped to 1-3. The Panthers picked up a forfeit win earlier this week when Clinton Union was forced to forfeit its previous win.
