Lincoln Next Opponent For Tigers
Friday at 1:00pm at Texas
Stadium, the Tigers and Coach Dave Henigan will attempt to get past the
third round of the playoffs. Standing in their way is the Lincoln
Tigers and Lincoln offers a daunting challenge.
Last week Lincoln rushed the
ball for over 350 yards in a 36-10 win over highly regarded Sulphur Springs.
With an offensive line that averages over 280 pounds across the front, it's
no secret what Lincoln wants to do. Superstar QB Byron Eaton (one of
the country's top basketball talents as well) leads the Tiger offense and is
joined by super soph RB Keith Hodge who leads Lincoln in rushing on the
season but the Tigers will spread it around keeping talented fresh runners
in the game at all times.
Eaton also leads the Lincoln
defense from his free safety position, but last week it was cornerback
Antoine Cumby who shut down the area's second leading receiver RoLaundo
Wright against Sulphur Springs. With an abundance of team speed on the
defensive side the Tigers will be challenged to match their normal lofty
outputs.
It should be a great day for
football so come up to Dallas and support the Tigers! |
