Tindley hasn't had much luck against Park Tudor recently, but that could start to change on Friday. The Tindley Tigers are taking a road trip to take on the Park Tudor Panthers at 7:00 p.m. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, both will really light up the scoreboard.
While Tigers fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They enjoyed a cozy 32-18 win over Edinburgh on Friday.
A big part of the victory came down to the chemistry between Kenneth Christmon and his top target Ty Yarrell. Christmon threw for 310 yards and three touchdowns while completing 75.8% of his passes while Yarrell picked up 98 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Yarrell was no stranger to the big play, connecting with a big catch that went for 54 yards.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Tindley was moving up and down the field and finished the game with 449 total yards. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Edinburgh only gained 134.
On the defensive side of the ball, a lot of the credit has to go to Tindley's defense and their three sacks. Justus Johnson was especially locked on to Edinburgh's QB and sacked him twice.

Tindley was taken down by Park Tudor 46-12 in their previous matchup back in August of 2023. Thankfully for Tindley, Dj (Darrell) Gordon (who rushed for 153 yards and two touchdowns on only 11 carries, and also threw for 200 yards and two touchdowns on only 19 passes) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
