Tigers Shut Out Ligonier Valley 52-0

After a power outage at Reeves Field, this matchup almost didn’t happen Friday night.  The game was moved to Blackhawk High School, and the Tigers didn’t miss a beat.  The game got started around 8:30 and Beaver Falls was strong from the start.   Big plays and a stiff defense helped the Tigers lock this one up early.  The score at the half was 38-0, with the mercy clock already running.  After a quick second half, the Tigers came out victorious with a final score BF 52 LV 0.
