The Jefferson Somerset Tigers traveled to Sneads, Fla. Friday, Oct. 15, with hopes of bringing home a win, but they suffered a shutout defeat of 28-0 against the Pirates.
The defeat does not represent how hard the Tiger team tried for a win. Tyren Dasher #3 held on tight to the ball and ran with it every opportunity he received, but never could get that touchdown run he was attempting to make. Anthony Ivey #1 made a very impressive interception, but the Pirates quickly took the ball back and made a touchdown in a retaliation play.
The Tigers have struggled this season with five losses and only two wins. They still have three more teams to face: Taylor County, Saint John Paul II, and Maclay. A show of support from the community at home games could make a difference in the lives of the young student athletes and inspire them with the confidence they need to bring in a win. The Tigers' next home game will be Thursday, Oct. 28 at 7 p.m.
