After getting a 3-0 start on the 2013 season, the DeKalb County Tigers suffered their first defeat, falling to the White County Warriors, a team the Tigers beat last year, 58-7. While the game was not a district loss, it may have served as a wakeup call to the Tigers, showing that they are still a young and inexperienced team that will have to fight for every win. The Warriors threw the running game at the Tigers from the start, passing the ball only four times for 39 yards in the entire game.
