The Many Tigers are a team that now expects success. In 2012, they ran deep into the playoffs before falling in a hardfought quarterfinal game. The next year, they were so close to the coveted 2A state football title. Finally, in 2014, they achieved that goal, going 15-0 on their way to the school’s first state championship. Not being one to accept partial success, Head Coach Jess Curtis expects the same from his team this year.
