The Chattooga Indians came into this game knowing that a win would qualify them for the AA State Playoffs. After a successful night on offense and a suffocating defense that is just what they did . The Indians are guaranteed a playoff spot with region title chances still ahead. Chattooga’s dominating play on both sides of the ball led to a 40-3 win on the road vs the Eagles from Coosa.

PAT was good by Caroline Hodges to make the score Chattooga 7 Coosa 0. The next drive for the eagles was fueled by a 35 yard run by Coosa’s #11 Darahjae Hames which took the ball all the down inside the Chattooga 30 yard line. The Eagles would take the ball all the way down to the 4 yard line but would have to settle for a 26 yard Field Goal by #8 Jose Valerio to make the score Chattooga 7 Coosa 3. Coosa would force a punt on the next Indian possession. That would bring the first quarter to an end.

The first play of the second quarter resulted in a fumble recovery by # 20 Gene Keith after a big hit by # 8 Devon Heroch. The Indians would start their next drive on the Eagles 29 yard line.  Just a few plays later #25 Lashaun Lester took it to the endzone from 14 yards out.

After a stop by the Indian defense Chattooga unloaded the bench with some fresh clean jerseys on the next offensive possession.  Three plays later the Indians punted the ball back to the eagles.
