The Tahlequah Tigers 7th, 8th, and 9th grade football teams traveled to Sallee Stadium Tuesday night for a Metro Lakes Conference showdown. The Tigers certainly passed the eye test before each contest with their large lineman and big backs. With all the favorable odds for the Tigers, the Collinsville Cardinals flew in on a mission to give the “Eye of the Tiger” a black eye.

7th grade win 12-0. No injuries were reported.
8th grade lose a close one 30-22. Dustin Leach has a sprain knee.
9th grade dominate 38-0. No injuries were reported.

I would like to thank the DADs for helping out as our chain crews last night. Our Quarterback Club has provided us with a really nice long sleeve game day shirt. Thanks QB Club for dressing us the best.

We are off the rest of the week for a well-deserved fall break. Our next action will be October 27. We will travel to Skiatook for our final game of the season. Hope to see the Cardinal Nation at Skiatook. Games begin at 5pm.
