The Kosciusko Whippets football team opened regular season play Friday night by traveling to Scooba and playing the Kemper County Wildcats.
The Wildcats drew first blood, but the Whippets came back with their own touchdown. First quarter, 7-6 Whippets. The Whippets added another touchdown in the top of the second quarter, 13-6. Each team added another touchdown, the Whippets finished the first half leading 20-12.
In the second half, Kemper County added a touchdown, 20-18, early in the fourth quarter. And that held for the final score. The hometown Whippets win their first game of the season.
Tyran Mosley was named the Autumn Ridge Player of the Game. Now, that’s something to smile about!
