Back on their normal schedule of a Friday night game, the Loyola College Prep Flyers posed very little threat for the Many Tigers, as the 7-2 and class 3A Flyers were shut down 50-35 when the final whistle blew.

Many took to the field of John Curtis Stadium here in town and won the toss, allowing them to defer to the second half and allow their defense on the field first.

Loyola had some problems coming out of the gate, as their quarterback was off target for one pass that Jacolby Cade could’ve intercepted had he been a little more ready for it. Loyola would soon fumble the football, but despite the Tigers having a shot at the turnover, the Flyers got back on it. A little trickery in the form of a double reverse pass gave them an early lead 7-0.

Many tops Winnfield in all-out battle of Tigers

It was all out war on Thursday, October 24 when the threat of extreme weather forced an early showdown between the Tigers of Many and Winnfield, which our local team won 34-33.

That makes five huge road wins for the Many Tigers, all of which were district games and have them ranked second in the state when it comes to 2-A teams. Next on their plate are two home games, then the playoffs, and hopefully the Super Dome.

“To all the people that buried the Many Tigers after the first couple weeks….Big mistake,” Coach Jess Curtis wrote on Twitter over the weekend. “We are back! Keep grinding boys!”

The early season woes have been shed and Many were performing on all cylinders during their home game against the Avoyelles Mustangs on October 18 which they soundly won 35-14.

Although Many lost the coin toss, they got their preferred result, with the defense taking the field first. However, Avoyelles was fired up and put a quick eight points on the board after several quick plays.

Many tried to answer quickly, but a holding penalty brought a huge run for a touchdown by Shamarion Wiseman back. It wouldn’t be until the second quarter when Many would get their first touchdown, leaving Avoyelles ahead 8-7. Many would quickly score again, putting them up 14-8 with 7:42 left in the second quarter. By halftime, they would be up 21-8.

The Many Tigers now have two district wins after soundly defeating the Holy Savior Menard Eagles on October 4 by a score of 52-31.

Although the high-powered running game of the Tigers gave them a nice cushion by the end of the game, things did not start out as well for Many.

The Eagles received the kickoff to begin the game and got to their own 40-yard line before Keelan Williams took him down. On the Eagles’ first play their quarterback threw a pass right down the middle and hit a wide-open receiver for a touchdown, which put them up 7-0.

After a bit of a rocky start to the season, which saw the Many Tigers lose three games in a row for the first time in at least ten years, they got back in the winning category after a solid win over the Red River Bulldogs on September 27 by a score of 35-21.

Without a doubt, Terrence Williams was the player of the night, putting up multiple touchdown runs and making up a sizable amount of the Tigers high-powered rushing game.

The Tigers were in their preferred position to begin the game, that of kicking off. Trotter Lafollette kicked a bit short and saw the ball ran out of bounds at the 34-yard line. The Tigers forced a quick three and out before Many took two plays when Williams went 44 yards for his first touchdown of the night. The point attempt put the Tigers up 7-0.
