The Mabank Panthers come to town for homecoming this Friday night.  There are a lot of similarities between the two teams, but the biggest difference is that Corsicana won it's district opener while Mabank fell to Ennis. 

Both teams enter Friday's game with an overall record of 3-3.  Both teams are looking to return to the playoffs and both teams have a dynamic running back to attack opposing defenses with.  Mabank's Brandon Carter is leading the district in rushing for the season with 998 yards and Tiger fans can expect him to carry the load for the Panthers.  The Tiger defense stepped up against Lancaster to record their second shutout of the season and will be looking to stuff the Panther rushing attack forcing them into passing situations.

On offense, the Tigers will be looking to exploit a Mabank defense that gave up 49 points in their district opener to Ennis.  Last week, the Tigers went with the tried and true offense of running, running, and more running.

The Tigers will be trying to get their record over the .500 mark for the first time since the season opener so we encourage all Tiger fans to come out and support the Tigers on homecoming night!
