The last game with the Commodores came down to a narrow margin as well, but it was finally the Tigers prevailing, 17-14, to earn their first conference victory.
“I’ve been around a lot of teams, and I’ve not ever seen a team go through what they have and still bond and fight and have the energy in the way they practice,” coach Eli Drinkwitz said after Saturday’s win. “Man, I was so proud of them.“
Wide receiver Luther Burden III had a big game in the victory, with four receptions (66 yards), and a touchdown. He also ran it in (10 yards), giving him both of the Tigers’ trips into the end zone.
