Whitewright combined an explosive offense with a dominant defensive performance to shut out Celeste 49-0 in non-district action Friday night.

The Tigers piled up big plays on the ground and through the air while holding the Blue Devils to 112 yards of total offense.

"I was a little nervous about us being ready to play, but those nerves were gone in a heartbeat, and I was proud of how we set the tone for the game from the get-go," Whitewright head coach Charlie Roten said.
