Wadley 50-Valley Head 0

Valley Head made the trip to Wadley, Friday night for the first round of state playoffs.

Wadley started their attack on the Tigers early and did not let up.  They beat Valley Head 50-0. Valley Head Tigers finish the season with a 3-7 record.  Their schedule was hard and they had to play several non-region games against bigger schools.

It was a heartbreaking loss for the Tigers.  Coach Sam Graham had this to say about the game.  “Wadley is a very good and experienced team.  It was a lopsided game for us.  We have a young team.  I am just glad that they young guys got to taste the playoffs.  Now that they have that in their blood, they will work to be able to come back again.”

Coach Sam Graham came to Valley Head late in the year and did not get to work with his team in the off season.  He said about this off season, “We are going to have a interesting off season.  We are going to hit the ground running.  It is going to be tough.”  We look forward to see their hard work pay off.
