The Enterprise Yellow Jackets (1-9, 0-4) dropped their final road game of the season Thursday night as the Amite County Trojans (5-5, 3-1) claimed a 36-15 victory in Liberty.

AC didn’t get on the board until just before the end of the first quarter when they took a 6-0 lead. The Trojans added two more passing touchdowns in the second quarter before the Jackets scored.

A rushing touchdown by Lawson Chemin and the Colby Beard PAT kick cut the Amite County lead to 20-7, which would be where it stood at halftime.
