•Parrott fielded an 11-man squad from 1971-84 and 1985-89; Patriots have played 8-man since 1990
•The 88 points last night was more than APA scored in ENTIRE SEASONS in 1980 (42 points in 2-5-1 campaign), 1974 (48 points in 1-7-1 campaign), 1982 (50 points in 3-3-2 campaign) and 1972 (56 points in 2-8 season)
•The previous high for single-game scoring was 78 points in a 78-6 win vs. NEW on Sept. 15, 2000
•Other 70-point-plus games for APA were: 72-28 win at Raleigh Word of God on Sept. 13, 2013 and a 70-6 win vs. Albemarle Academy on Oct. 5, 1979
•The 128 combined points between Parrott and Hobgood last night blew away the previous combined record of 110 points (APA 64, Lasker Northeast Academy 46 on Sept. 21, 2012)

Other APA games in which 100 or more combined points were scored:
•105 points, twice (Hobgood 70, APA 35, Oct. 26, 2012, 1st round of playoffs; Hobgood 62, APA 43, Oct. 25, 2013)
•101 points, twice (APA 68, Halifax 33, Nov. 4, 2013, 1st round of playoffs; Rocky Mount Academy 59, APA 42, Oct. 10, 2014)
