The Tigers got on the scoreboard at 6:23 in the first quarter when sophomore Demon Bolt ran in a touchdown from 21 yards out to cap off an eight-play, 65-yard drive.

Thibodaux’s second touchdown came two minutes later after the team recovered a lateral pass. A Brandon Duncan 5-yard touchdown run four plays later put the Tigers ahead 14-0.

A second quarter interception by sophomore Trovon Reed put Duncan into position for another touchdown. He then rushed the ball to the end zone to cap off his night with a two-point conversion.

Duncan finished out the first half and the game with 12 carries for 72 yards and two touchdowns.

Quarterback Donnie Morgan hooked up with Jeremy Aucoin on a 5-yard touchdown pass to put the Tigers ahead 29-0 heading into the half.

Thibodaux’s Jasmine Williams opened the second half with a quick 63-yard touchdown run.

Reed scored the Tigers’ final touchdown on a 31-yard rush in the fourth quarter.

On the ensuing kick-off, South Lafourche’s Ryan Bagala returned the ball 63 yards to the Tigers’ two-yard line. Quarterback Mark Mayberry threw a five-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Pierre with 3:11 left in the game to spoil the shutout.
