MOUNT VERNON, Ga. – The Point University Skyhawks opened fast, controlled most of the game and got the late score they needed Saturday morning, topping the Brewton-Parker Christian University Barons 26-12.

Point added to it at the start of the second quarter with Chinera Shaheed finding the end zone on a scoring play from Williams, and the successful point-after try pushed the advantage to 13-0. Brewton-Parker answered later in the quarter on Keshauna Gusby's rushing touchdown with 3:56 remaining, cutting the deficit to 13-6 by halftime.

Point regained control in the third quarter. Williams hit Leah Prather for a touchdown with 10:19 left in the quarter, and another successful PAT made it 20-6.
