Tigers beat Westlake in a wild comeback in what was shaping up to be a long night for the DeQuincy Tigers going into halftime down 21-10. However the Hometown Tigers came out in the second half with a never say die attitude scoring 14 unanswered points and completing one of the most memorable comebacks in program history. They defeated the Westlake Rams for the first time since 2016 by the final score of 24-21.
Those teams played extremely hard and laid everything out there on the field on Friday night!
