Chattooga Defeats Dade County 28-21

Friday Night Football came early this week as the Chattooga Indians were forced to play on Thursday night due to a shortage of officials in the area for Friday.  The Indians scored a big win on Thursday night defeating the Dade County Wolverines 28-21 on Senior Night at the Little Big Horn.  The win moved Chattooga to 3-6 overall on the season and 3-3 in region play.  Chatttooga is battling Gordon Central for the 4th playoff spot in Region 7A.  Gordon Central is 2-3 in region play with games remaining against Armuchee tonight and Dade County next week.  Gordon Central ows the tiebreaker over Chattooga due to their 21-14 win over Chattooga earlier this season.  Chattooga would need to win next Friday night at Coosa and have Gordon Central lose one of it’s two remaining games in order to make the playoffs.

Trion has a bye week this week and will finish their regular season schedule next week at home against Bowdon on Thursday night.
