As the season comes to a close the Tigers look to cap off their season. It’s more than just putting up a banner, it’s about sending off the elite senior class and Coach Wallace’s Hall of Fame career in the right way.
The Tigers are rolling off a six game win streak after their loss to Boyle County in week eight. The offense has exploded while averaging 43 points per game and they don’t look to take their foot of the gas.
The defense, with the return of senior linebacker Ben Pinkston, will continue to play fast, physical, and relentless to set up the offense to score points.
St. X takes on the Male Bulldogs Friday at 7 p.m. in the Regional Final in a familiar matchup with two teams that are consistently winning programs. This game never fails to entertain and is one you can’t miss. There’s a lot of hope for the Tigers to finish strong and help Coach Wallace’s illustrious career be remembered forever with one final state championship.
Male stunned Manual last week after a previous 52-13 loss in the “The Old Rivalry” game. The Bulldogs are a different team than week three and the Tigers have a great game plan to get the job done.
With a win Friday the Tigers will likely have a rematch against Trinity here at St. X. This will be the game of the year and St. X football needs everyone’s support in these upcoming weeks while they have a chance to make history.
With that being said. EVERYONE GET TO THE CAGE! It is important to support our brothers through it all, no matter who they play. The Rage Cage makes a difference. Be there for the guys because they will do the same for you. Make this the most memorable year we can.
It’s been a few years since the Tigers have had a deep playoff run. The senior class is legit with standouts like Mason Trimble, Marlon Harbin, Wyatt Graven, Caden Barker, and Brennan Garr. These guys have what it takes to win, and lead the program to its 16th state title.
