Tigers kick off playoffs

The Fort Scott Tigers student section erupts during the first quarter of Tuesday night's football game as the Tiger defense blocked an extra point try by the Louisburg Wildcats kicker. The Tigers kicked off the first round of the playoffs at Frary Field Tuesday, just five days after clinching the Class 4A District 6 Championship with a convincing win over the Anderson County Bulldogs. The Tigers' playoff run was ended with a 20-27 loss to the Wildcats. See Page 8 for game story. (Michael Pommier/Tribune)
