By The Numbers for Week 10 of the Prep Football Season

2: Three area teams lost Week 10 games that they needed to win in order to reach the state playoffs. In Class 5A, Central Lafourche was stopped one win short of the dance. In Class 4A, it was South Lafourche, who missed out after a loss to South Terrebonne.

28: South Lafourche led South Terrebonne by a score of 7-3 on Friday night, and the Tarpons were driving the ball down the field for what appeared to be another potential score. But the Tarpons turned over the ball to the Gators, who scored, which set off a run of 28-straight points for South Terrebonne in the win.

321: Vandebilt’s pass-happy offense showed that it had a little mean streak within it on Friday night against Ellender. The Terriers rushed for 321 yards in the win, gutting the interior of the Patriots defense at the line of scrimmage to make countless big plays.

8: CCA’s football team won eight games in this regular season – the first time the young program has accomplished that feat in a 10-game, LHSAA-sanctioned slate. The Lions’ growth is amazing, given the short amount of time the program has been in existence.
