September 20, 2016

CENTRAL LAFOURCHE — 20

SOUTH TERREBONNE — 0

Soggy, wet conditions didn’t do many favors to either offense on Friday night, but it was the Central Lafourche Trojans who scored the win, improving to a perfect 3-0 in the process. What the heck is going on in Gatoiland? The Gators have played three games and still don’t have an offensive touchdown.

H.L. BOURGEOIS — 21

SOUTH PLAQUEMINES — 16

If s not easy to win down in extreme South Louisiana, but that’s exactty what Hi. Bourgeois did on Friday night, using timely defense and efficient offense to score the victory and improve to 2-1 on the young season. The schedule is about to stiffen up from here, though, for the Braves.

TERREBONNE — 30

ASSUMPTION — 21

Terrebonne feels like the forgotten darling of the Bayou District. Everyone is focused on the river schools, Central Lafourche and Terrebonne, but the Tigers are quietly 3-0 and have scored 30 or more points in every win. With the loss. Assumption is 0-3. That’s not good for the defending District 7-4A champs.

THIBODAUX — 26

SOUTH LAFOURCHE — 17

The oddest game of the night, by far, went down in Thibodaux where South Lafourche invented a way to lose a football game. The Tarpons led 17-7 with eight minutes left and were at the Tigers’ 1-yard-line going for the kill. They fumbled. Thibodaux ran it back for a touchdown, and the floodgates opened from there.

ELLENDER — 12

BONNABEL — 0

The Patriots improve to 2-0 on the season, scoring a big-time homecoming victory over the Bruins on a wretched, destroyed field at South Terrebonne High School. The playing conditions out there are deplorable and are a shining example of why we need field turf in Terrebonne Parish.

That’s another story for another day Great win for the Patriots.

VANDEBILT — 14

ST. CHARLES — 10

It was a low-scoring dogfight, but the Vandebilt Catholic football team scored a HUGE victory over St. Charles on Friday, trumping staff writer Karl Gormmel’s alma mater with a plethora of big defensive plays. The Terriers are a big-time threat in 2016 — maybe the favorites to win District 7-4A.

ST. JAMES — 40

E.D. WHITE — 28

ED. White is young, and the Cardinals are getting better literally every week. But it’s just not been enough to secure a victory so far this season. The Cardinals are having a hard time limiting opponents defensively so far in the season, having allowed 108 points through three games. That, folks, is just not good enough.

CCA — 46

GUEYDAN — 6

The Lions absolutely dominated for the duration of Friday night’s game, improving to 3-0 on the young season. We say it seemingly every week, but the Lions are not the typical Class 1A team. They can compete with just] about anyone. Next up will be their toughest challenge of the season — a home date with Vandebilt.

SACRED HEART — 53

HOUMA CHRISTIAN — 21

After winning the opening game of the season, Houma Christian is now 1-2 after getting walloped by Sacred Heart in a blowout defeat. The schedule lightens up a bit for the | Warriors in the coming weeks before district play. We expect the local private school to get back to their winning ways in a hurry.
