The DeKalb County Tigers traveled to Baxter last Friday to take on the undefeated third-ranked Upperman Bees. Both teams were in the top spots for the district championship, with each coming into the game at 4-0 in district play. The Tigers had high hopes against a team that had struggled against other opponents like Livingston, but their hopes were dashed early in the game.DeKalb got the ball first, and the kickoff had Dustin Warner returning the ball to the Tigers’ 25-yard line.
Tigers fall hard to Bees
