The Cougars are celebrating homecoming this week and Brittney Lowe was crowned homecoming queen at the annual coronation held Wednesday night.

"A win under your belt always helps," Walker said.

Drew shut out Palmer 8-0 and West Tallahatchie defeated the Palmer Dragons 14-8 last Friday night.

Tigers and Hornets to Clash Tonight
|

BY MYRA BEAN
SPORTS EDITOR
The No. 1 South Panola Tigers (3-0) will return home to host the 2-1 Greenville-Weston Hornets.
The Hornets are in a different spot on the roster due to reclassification this year.
When West Point and Grenada both came back into North 5A, some major changes took place in 1-5A and 2-5A. West Point took back a spot in 1-5A, but there was no more room for Grenada and Greenville-Weston. Both ended up in 2-5A and no longer district games.
Therefore, Greenville-Weston ended up as the fourth game on the Tiger schedule and West Point is the last game.
The Tigers defeated the Hornets last year 35-14. The Hornets started off the season with back-to-back wins against Cleveland East Side 19-12 and Greenwood Elzy, 21-6, respectively. Last week, they ran smack into the claws of the Clarksdale Wildcats and lost 24-6.
The Tigers on the other hand have been having fun this season, having scored 150 points and gave up only 22. They have scored at least 42 points in all three games and shut out two opponents.
The Tigers will be on Tiger Field tonight for a 7 p.m. kickoff.

The North Delta Green Wave (1-2 overall, 0-1 district) will host the Indianola Colonels (0-3 overall) tonight for their homecoming.
The Colonels will arrive at the Green Wave field hungry for a win. Indianola is coming off a 23-22 loss to Washington School last week. In the past few years, this game between the Green Wave and the Colonels has turned into a big rivalry game.
The Green Wave are coming off of a loss from district foe Kirk Academy who is leading the district with a 2-0 record.
