Northeast closes preseason scrimmage with balanced showing at Meet the Tigers

Northeast’s final preseason football scrimmage produced three scoring drives and three turnovers during the August 18 Meet the Tigers event at Tiger Stadium.

Glen Singleton finished an 11-play, 55-yard opening drive with a two-yard touchdown run. Quarterback Xae Mayes completed six passes on the possession, including a 20-yard gain.

Elijsah Westbrook’s interception helped set up a 38-yard field goal by Daniel Sherman. Tytus Davidson recovered a fumble, and Zay Hubbard added another interception for the defense.

The scrimmage ended with Jaki Holmes making a nine-yard touchdown catch on a pass from Colt Whitacre. The roughly 25-minute session followed introductions of Northeast’s athletic programs and a performance by the Showband from Tigerland. It marked the event’s first appearance at Tiger Stadium.
