HERRIN, IL (WSIL) -- The Herrin Tigers battled the Du Quoin Indians at home in a week three Friday night football matchup.
The two teams were deadlocked in a 7-7 game in the second quarter. Indians' QB Camden Waller took the snap and rolled right, firing the pass to receiver Jaelyn Smith - and it gets intercepted by the Tigers' Evan Young, making sure Du Quoin stays knotted up with Herrin.
On the next Du Quoin drive, the Indians would fumble, and Brady Quaglia would pick up the loose ball and take it back to the house.
The Tigers moved the ball methodically down the field on their next drive, capping it off with a one-yard TD run by QB Reese Billingsly. After a missed extra point, the Tigers would lead with comfortable 20-7 lead.
Although the Indians would stage a comeback, they ultimately fell short, with the Herrin Tigers getting their first win of the season against the Du Quoin indians, 20-14.
