Some counted Warren Central out of a district win after a three game losing streak. The team proved those who doubted them wrong on Friday by pulling off a 3-0 upset against Pearl.

The Viking defense held up all night as they handed the Pirates their second loss of the year. Jason Williams came up with a big interception for WC.

Although the Vikings couldn’t find their way in the end zone, Trey Hall had a good game in rushing and receiving.

Brandon Gilliam’s 33 yards field goal as time expired sealed the victory for the Vikings. Gilliam’s game winning field goal was set up after quarterback Jack Wright hit Preston Lynch on a long pass put WC in good field possession.

The Vikings are now 4-3 and will travel to play Terry next Friday.
