St. Martinville got by the first hurdle in its quest to capture the mythical parish football championship, but coach Danny Carroll’s Tigers face a big obstacle when they host Breaux Bridge on Friday.
A fired up Tiger defense delivered five turnovers and limited Northside to less than 100 yards in a rousing 33-0 homecoming victory here last Friday.
And the Breaux Bridge attack delivered more than enough firepower, racing to a 21-0 halftime lead before coasting to the shutout win.
Native Americans had been living on the land undisturbed, except for occasional fights with each other, for thousands of years when the first Europeans arrived.
