PINE PRAIRIE -- After a huge opening game win, the Pine Prairie Panthers were hoping to secure their second win of the season as they hosted Beau Chene here Friday night.
But, it was not meant to be as the Gators crawled away with an impressive 29-0 win over the Panthers.

PORT BARRE -- It was easy enough to see on the field; but the stats reveal just how dominating the Sacred Heart Trojans were in their 20-14 over Port Barre here Thursday night.

BASILE -- What happened Friday night here in Basile, after a rain drenching pre-game downpour, could be summed up in one powerful work: dominance.

Mamou head coach Brian Brumfield did not mince words after a stagnant performance this past Friday in a 28-0 loss to Ville Platte.

It took Pine Prairie up until the fourth quarter to get their engines going in a 22-3 win over Bunkie this past Friday.

After an enormous come from behind season opening 34-26 win over Iota last week, the Sacred Heart Trojans are looking to bring the momentum with them tonight as they take on Class 3A Port Barre on the road. Game time is scheduled for 7 p.m.

Even though it is only the second game of the season, Friday night’s Ville Platte/Basile match-up is critical for both clubs. For Ville Platte, a win over the perennial powerhouse Bearcats would give them a 2-0 start for the first time in five years after defeating Mamou 28-0 last week.

BUNKIE-- Pine Prairie made history on Friday night when they rallied in the fourth quarter to defeat Bunkie 22-­3 in a non­district game.
It was the Panthers first ever opening day victory since the school started playing football in 2004.

VILLE PLATTE--- After falling behind 20-7 midway through the third quarter, the Sacred Heart Trojans rallied for a 34-26 season-opening victory over the Iota Bulldogs.

MAMOU — In a game marred by sloppy play in the second half from both teams, the Ville Platte Bulldogs used dominant offensive and defensive line play to pick up a huge 28-0 win over the Mamou Demons here Friday night.
