Bulls fall 26–7 to Palm Harbor; Sarasota is next

Parrish’s search for a first win is heading to Sarasota after Palm Harbor University handed the Bulls a 26–7 home loss Friday, September 11.

The Hurricanes arrived winless, too. They left with a 1–3 record, while Parrish dropped to 0–4.[1][2][4]

Sophomore Travis Clayton gave the Bulls plenty to deal with. MaxPreps’ September 12 recap credits the Palm Harbor defender with 12 tackles, five tackles for loss and 1½ sacks.

That is a substantial night behind the line of scrimmage. For Parrish, seven points marked a season low after scoring 14 against Lakewood Ranch, 12 at Riverview and 13 at Bayshore.

Across four games, the Bulls have scored 46 points and allowed 115. The immediate challenge is clear: find enough offense to give themselves room to compete. They have yet to reach 15 points in a game this fall.[3][4]

Friday’s trip to Sarasota is scheduled for September 18 at 7:30 p.m. Then comes the September 25 home game against Palmetto, the first district matchup on Parrish’s schedule.

That distinction matters for a team looking for a reset. The four losses count, but the Bulls have not yet played a district game. A better showing against Sarasota would give them something to carry into the part of the schedule where the district race begins.[4]
