Pittsburg made its final tune up for the North Coast Section playoffs on Saturday, finishing the regular season with a 56-3 rout of visiting Antioch in the 107th Big Little Game.
Both teams brought impressive records to the matchup, but the margin between the longtime rivals remains quite large.
Pittsburg led 28-3 at halftime and 42-3 after three quarters as it stretched its winning streak in the series to 11 games, the longest such run for the Pirates.
Antioch won 11 in a row from 1969-79.
Pittsburg has 19 victories in the past 20 games between the teams, its only loss coming in 2015 when Najee Harris played running back for Antioch.
On Saturday, RJ Mosley opened the scoring for Pittsburg when he caught a 3-yard touchdown pass from Carlos Torres. Mosley later reeled in a 53-yard scoring pass from JaVale Jones as the Pirates (9-1, 5-0) clinched another Bay Valley Athletic League championship.
Torres also threw a 10-yard TD pass to King Wade and Jones connected with Ramire Lewis on a 43-yard scoring pass.
For Antioch, the game marked its return to the field after the Panthers forfeited last week’s matchup against Liberty because of district code of conduct violations. Video had surfaced on social media of what appeared to be a locker-room hazing incident.
The loss Saturday dropped Antioch’s record to 7-3, 3-2.
Pittsburg will likely be the No. 2 seed in the NCS’s Open/Division I playoffs when the brackets are unveiled Sunday.
Antioch could be in Division III.
