Whitehaven Survives Overtime Battle Against Fairley

This is what a neighborhood rivalry between two highly-ranked teams in The Commercial Appeal’s Dandy Dozen is supposed to be like.

Third-ranked Whitehaven appeared headed for another rout over their rivals when the Tigers jumped out to a 14-0 first-quarter lead. But the Fairley defense blanked Whitehaven for the next three quarters, allowing the offense to send the game into overtime.

But the Tigers (2-0) regained their composure in overtime, coming away with a 20-14 victory over No. 7 Fairley.
