An inexperienced offensive line has made West Fork one dimensional on offense, forcing it to rely almost exclusively on the passing of junior quarterback Daniel Holiday. He and multi-purpose threat Taylor Genz and receiver/defensive end Eddie Frazier, whose nine sacks lead the team, have provided leadership for the young Tigers.
Beating up on the 1-4A Conference’s also-rans have Prairie Grove poised for the playoffs again. Winning next week at first-place Gravette will mean more. The Tigers haven’t beaten a team with a winning record this year. A win over the Lions is the boost they need to propel them into the playoffs.

Taylor Genz and Bradley Bean’s fourth-quarter interceptions secured the victory. As West Fork’s line play has improved, the team has begun to find its rhythm. Junior Daniel Holiday, who’ll make his 20th-straight […]
The Tigers’ penchant for shooting themselves in the foot is responsible for their winless start. Can West Fork stop self destructing and make the playoffs for the third straight year?
The Tigers were 2-1 at this point last year, poised for an impressive run through the 1-3A conference, where they finished second with a 6-1 record. Coach Bryan Dougan attributed the Tigers’ 0-2-1 start to his young charges playing positions they’re unaccustomed to.
