Week 6 news and notes in the Tri-parishes:

2: The number of unbeaten teams left in the Tri-parish area after six games of play. The previous number was three (Terrebonne, Central Catholic and South Terrebonne), but the Gators were beaten at home by South Lafourche to drop the number to two.

37: The number of unanswered points Thibodaux opened Thursday’s game against Central Lafourche with. With the strong start at their disposal, the Tigers overcame a rocky finish and won a 37-21 contest.

274: The total rushing yards E.D. White High School accumulated in their 33-13 win against West St. Mary – a win that was the fourth-straight for the Cardinals.

Silver: Vandebilt cornerback Daren Kitchen – On a tough and emotional night for football, Kitchen racked up 15 tackles for the Terriers to lead the team to a win against Belle Chasse.

Gold: South Lafourche linebacker Justin Lasseigne – With his team in dire need of a win, Lasseigne recorded 13 tackles and two interceptions to lead the previously winless Tarpons over the previously unbeaten South Terrebonne Gators.

The Super 6 power rankings ranking Casey Gisclair’s six best Tri-parish teams):

1. Terrebonne – The Tigers were in a fight again, but they remained unbeaten with a win against a solid Assumption team.

2. Vandebilt – It was an incredibly emotional day for the Terriers on Friday, but they overcame it and achieved victory. Never underestimate destiny, which Vandebilt has on its side this year.

3. Patterson – The Lumberjacks are showing why everyone considered them a state championship contender in the preseason. They continue to roll on.

4. E.D. White – Like Patterson, the Cardinals have rolled to a fast midseason after a slow start. The two teams’ meeting this weekend will truly be a treat.

5. Central Catholic – These guys just keep on going with another win Friday to stay unbeaten .The defense has to improve, though, after allowing 42 points this week.

6. South Terrebonne – You have to expect to drop quite a bit when you’re 5-0 and you lose to an 0-5 team on your own home field. And that was no fluke, either – the Tarpons outgained the Gators in almost every facet of the game.
