Red Bank changed its starting quarterback back to Caleb Tate because the Lions had two weeks to prepare for the game.
East Ridge changed its quarterback during the District 6-AA contest.
East Ridge star JoJo Tillery injured his left ankle in the second quarter of Red Bank’s 14-7 win in Red Bank Community Stadium, where it became so foggy that down markers were difficult to see from the home side of the field to the visiting side.
“It’s a high-ankle sprain,” East Ridge coach Tracy Malone said. “We’re so quarterback-centric with the things we do with run-pass options, and all that went out the window, so then it became a gut-check thing for our offensive line.
“It’s hard to play OL when the defense knows what’s coming.”
