The Chattooga Indians came up just short on the road Friday night, falling to the Coosa Eagles 14-7 in a low-scoring non-region matchup in Rome.

Chattooga entered the game looking for its first win of the season and turned in its strongest defensive performance of the young season, holding Coosa to just two touchdowns. The Indians, however, were unable to generate enough offense to overcome the Eagles.

The loss drops Chattooga to 0-3 on the season under head coach Roone Gable, while Coosa improves to 2-1.

There was also a concerning moment during Friday night’s game when Chattooga’s #2, Aiden Fletcher, was injured. Fletcher is expected to be okay following the injury.

Despite the loss, the Indians showed improvement defensively after allowing 33 points against LaFayette in the season opener and 42 points against Model last week.

Chattooga will remain on the road next week as the Indians travel to Ridgeland on Friday, September 18, for another non-region matchup. The Panthers enter the game at 0-4 after falling to LaFayette 27-17 Friday night.

The Indians will look to pick up their first victory of the season before returning home to the Little Big Horn later this month.
