Tigers split weekend games; Lady Tigers fall

The Morgan City Tigers split their weekend action, defeating Terrebonne Saturday, 3-0, after dropping their final District 7-II contest of the season to Vandebilt Catholic Friday, 2-0.
In Saturday’s win, the Tigers got goals from Miguel Perez, Carlos Calderon and Wilmer Lopez.
On Friday against Vandebilt Catholic, Morgan City coach Trevor Patterson said Vandebilt had more possessions and chances than the Tigers, but the Morgan City squad made stops.
The Terriers’ two goals came via corner kicks.
“Both were off of our mistakes not getting to the ball,” Patterson said.
The Tigers (10-8-3 overall, 3-5 in district) now will await their playoff seeding when the brackets are released Wednesday. The Tigers likely will be at home in the first round.
