NEW IBERIA — The North Vermilion Tigers rallied in the second half but fell short, 19-13, in a District 5-4A game at Westgate on Thursday night.
The Patriots (2-5 overall, 0-2 district) rallied in the fourth quarter on a touchdown pass from Logan Thompson to Myles Johnson with about 11 minutes to go. The 2-point try failed.
