The Bainbridge football team put forth a good effort, but lost to Seattle Prep 21-14 in overtime Friday at West Seattle Stadium.

Six turnovers ultimately led to the team’s downfall. One of those fumbles was returned for a touchdown in the first quarter. Prep scored on a pass play in the second to take a 14-0 lead into halftime.

The Spartans didn’t score until Corey Touchette ran one in from three yards out with 8:30 left in the game. The Panthers had a chance to run the clock out to end the game, but they fumbled at midfield with 1:20 left. The offense drove down the field and as time expired, Chris Bell completed a pass to Alex Crane in the corner of the endzone to eventually tie the game.
