The Pittsburg Pirates had their first loss of the 2013 football season Friday night against the still undefeated and Class 2A fourth-ranked New Boston Lions at Lion Stadium.

New Boston took the lead on their first possession after an 8 play 67 yard drive which culminated with a 1-yard touchdown run by senior quarterback Aaron Conkleton. They scored two more points on a conversion of a botched extra point attempt and had the lead 8-0 with 5:57 remaining in the first quarter.
