Grants Pass Cavemen Football 10-35 Silverton

Silverton dominated from the start, handing the Grants Pass Cavemen a 35-10 football loss Friday night in Grants Pass, Oregon. The Cavemen, competing in the Southwest Conference (6A), dropped their first game of the fall in this non-league matchup, falling by a margin that reflected Silverton's control throughout the evening. Grants Pass managed to put 10 points on the board but could not find answers for a Silverton offense that kept the scoreboard moving in the visitors' favor. The defeat drops the Cavemen to 2-1 on the season, a record that still shows promise after a strong start to the year. Losses like this one against a physical opponent can reveal areas that need sharpening before conference play heats up. The coaching staff will have film to study and adjustments to make in the week ahead. Grants Pass will look to bounce back and protect that winning record when they return to action next week.
