The Seminole Indians lost to the Lubbock Estacado Matadors Friday night 20-10 at Wigwam Stadium.

The contest was the opening District 2-4A game for both teams.

“This was a really physical, hard fought game tonight,” Seminole head football coach and boy’s athletic director Greg Poynor said to his team after the game. “I hate to lose, but I can live with it if I know you gave it your all and you did.”

The game was always going to be a tough one. Estacado is always very physical and this year boast the best defense that Poynor thinks he will play all year.

KEYS FOR SUCCESS

1 DON’T GIVE UP BIG PLAYS

The Tribe defense has been plagued this year by giving up big plays that have killed any momentum. Arm tackles won’t do it, and the Indian secondary can’t be beat with a long pass.
