The Marshall County Tigers had no problems in Music City Friday night, trouncing East Nashville Magnet School 41-7 to remain unbeaten on the season.

The Cornersville Bulldogs turned the corner on their season Friday night when they demolished Moore County 39-14 on Homecoming at Frog Bottom. "This was a game that left a sour taste in our mouth last year," Cornersville coach Gerard Randolph said. "They really beat our young team up last year, so we wanted to do a better job of competing and responding to adversity and as a staff, we were pleased with the effort that our guys showed."

The Community Middle School Vikings invaded Chapel Hill Thursday night and almost pulled off a win over the FMS Rockets, but a big second half propelled Forrest to a hard fought 26-22 win. All the credit goes to Community, they played really hard and are a very physical football team," FMS coach Corey Searcy said. "We told our guys all week that they are the best team in the conference overall---things just haven't worked out for them, but they played well."
