The #1 ranked Newton Eagles traveled to Silsbee Friday night to face the #7 ranked Silsbee Tigers.  The Tigers were coming off a loss to 5A PNG with a score of 48-35 in week 1 and were itching to knock off the Eagles and their 31-game winning streak.

That didn’t happen.  The Eagles beat the Tigers 52-21.

The Eagles will host the West Orange Stark Mustangs on Friday night.  This will be one of the best games to see in the state of Texas.
