They will now face Cumberland on the road on Friday, Nov. 12. Kickoff is at 6 p.m.
Portsmouth’s Evan Beese had a great night contributing on both sides of the ball. He scored two touchdowns — one on a 45-yard reception of a throw by quarterback Benny Hurd — and also intercepted a pass on defense.
Carson Conheeny provided one of the many highlights of the game by running 94 yards for a touchdown in the second quarter.
In separate plays, Luke Brennan ran for a 9-yard touchdown and recovered a fumble.
Marcus Evans scored a TD on a 1-yard run.
Hurd intercepted a pass and ran for 54 yards on nine carries.
